Artist Statement
Defintion of They: those individuals: those ones. A distantation which makes it possible to keep oneself at ropes length from someone and their situation. Being a bit detached is what makes it possible for us to go to war for example, where we might have to take another life. They. Not us. Not you and me. So we keep at bay, not to be mean, but to survive and not get infected. We hold reality in tiny tweesers as far away as our arms let us. Not to be indifferent or anything, but in order to cope with our day.
For showcasing the theme of They, I found the photo medium to prove the point of distantation excellently. It’s clean and a tad more effortless compared to work on a large oil painting for weeks. Neat and expeditious, its wonderful aloofness penetrates the question better than any other medium could have done.
The views expressed by our artists in their artist statements do not necessarily represent the views of our art galleries. Artists can be visually expressive but may verbally misrepresent their true intentions or ideas. Please note that we support expression, whether it is controversial or not, but our intention is never to offend.
