a smear of color and then as a girl in motionthe discomfort induced by this cross-wired
carnal narcissism suggests a sort of discourse on
the increasing denaturalization of nature and
the mechanization of creativity
which mines the
organic geometry of genetic and cellular forms
to create compositions
that attempt to fit the details of her own
life
into economically derived systems
obscured by a thick dollop of lustrous
pale-pink oil paint
cryptic narratives
map out the descent
from rural grace into suburban angst
an obsessive quest for order
notice the vicissitudes
of personal existence
travel endlessly in search
of the sublime
realize the artifice
of your constructions
