Recto-Verso: Stories Visible and Invisible
July 8 - August 26, 2023
Solo show at the Rails End Gallery and Arts Centre in Haliburton, Ontario
Recto-Verso is a style of creating art, extremely rarely used by artists around the world to portray images, feelings, and stories on both sides of a panel. I use this method to demonstrate the physical, emotional, and psychic energies needed to discover stories hidden, untold, unasked, unexplored in each of us, in each place, in each community. Every one has a story. Every one is much more interesting, layered, and fascinating than we think. It takes an act of empathy and understanding to discover and respect these stories.
Recto-Verso paintings invite viewers to see the front as only a small part of the story and make an effort to uncover the stories hidden beyond and beneath. Go past, outside, further. This show also has a diversity panel, a series on visibility and invisibility, and an interactive installation for the Privilege Spectrum.
