Parkett Vol. 65
Quote from Parkett
“The work has a double life, the parts of which are separate, yet deeply connected. On one level, it’s a picture of a better world: a peaceable kingdom where all of nature co-exists in idyllic harmony. On another, simultaneous, level, it’s a painting: an elaborately composed arrangement of paint on canvas that is inevitably part of a complex dialogue with the whole history of the medium. There is a constant back and forth between the creation of a pictorial world and the act of painting itself. For the work to be successful, a certain harmony needs to be achieved that will encompass both elements.”
