The new series are big. These are 10.5 feet square. They are bigger than the body. They are taller than you and wider than you.
When you can see the piece from far away, - which is cool since it is meant to be seen outdoors where there is a lot of space - you see the image. As you get closer, the image falls apart and you can see the stitches. And then the expansiveness of the color, so much color!!!!! Hanging in air.
To me to go big is to claim space. It is a declaration that I intend to be seen, and my what I make is bigger than you. To go big - to claim space like the big guns - Nevelson, Coyne, von Rydingsvard, takes courage. But then all art takes courage. It goes against the values of being a good girl. i am not good and I am not a girl. I am a woman. And I do far more good for the world when I let go of being good.
When you see the work, what do you think of the size? Do you want to step into your bigness?
