Mixed media on wood panel.
30x40"
Wild. Unkept. Powerful. Gaze of Medusa focuses on the curvature of shapes while enforcing it with colour. The snakes appear within the shapes near her hair. Her eyes are covered, a hint that perhaps she herself is ensnared, frozen in place. All that surrounds her are thought patterns, as Josh Hyman describes. In the moment that you are rendered immobile, struck by the seconds in which you gaze upon this piece, what goes through your mind? Has there been a moment in your life where you were stuck? Overcome by feelings of fear, grief? This is a piece that represents the clashing of thoughts, the process where confusion blends itself with shapes and colour. The mind trying to make sense of what it’s being bombarded with as danger, seductive as it can be, moves in.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT
The creation of a new luxurious mastery is always a super exuberant moment for me. Although I may have a preconceived thought of creating something unique and exciting that will intrigue myself and the viewer, ultimately the art creates its own soul, and encapsulates, solidifies itself into the medium. As I communicate the energy from my subconscious into the physical world – the form and design manifests itself through each line until I feel that heavenly spark of creative completion. Nobody truly perceives art the same way; it’s what their subconscious protrudes. This is why my art moves people in such a mesmerizing manner. Whether they are seeing my work for the first time, or whether it’s a piece they have viewed several times, it’s entirely up to them. Similar to love, it can happen at first sight or deepen over time.
