OF LIGHT AND AIR: NAVIGUER

A seminal collection in the artist’s portfolio, Naviguer is entirely composed of large canvases and limited color, narrowing focus to achieve elegance of form.  The series embraces the limitlessness of sky and sea – and the vibrancy of light, which exists in vast and open space. Naviguer is not about an abstraction of a sail but rather the concept of it. Here, there is no specific object, time or place.  Rather this is “the thing itself” as Socrates thought and Kant wrote. The compositional construction is created through a layering of lines and materials.  The resulting artwork creates movement in fullness of sail – and is quite literally, in full sail.
