“Slippery Geometry is a collection of single-material works of layered geometric repetitions–aiming to be an even field, with no single focal point. Instead, each piece is infinitely divisible into sub-compositions as the eye moves around the work. The wet materials defy precision, but add nuance, complicating the delineations.Slippery Geometry was arrived at by merging two long-running personal interests: a lifelong love of monochromatic painting maintained for decades (borne of an obsession with materials) and the pursuit of a rewarding way to paint abstract objects with inherently fluid media.As luck would have it, a breakthrough was made while traveling. Armed with only a bottle of walnut ink, a small pad of paper, and a single brush, the pieces made while on that journey fired the imagination. Being mid-March, 2020, it was also a trip cut short by the beginning of the Covid-19 lockdowns.” - AS
