Conduits

The paintings in Conduits explore the idea of veils and coverings as conduits to meaning. The works are a thematic offshoot of the Complete Reality series, an expansion of that body of work’s consideration of reality, artifice and layers of meaning in staged and assembled environments. Focusing on interior spaces within the confines of a single geographic location, the paintings display multiple depictions of drapery, veils and coverings. Featuring scenes that suggest a focal point just beyond view, the paintings probe the delicate tension between the real and the artificial, the enduring and the fleeting. In doing so, they question the divide between images captured through the lens and those constructed through painting. In 2026 Conduits was presented in London at Lehmann Maupin.
