The Proxies

2011, Acrylic and mixed media on panel, 11"w x 14"h (each)

“What one must paint is the image of resemblance—if thought is to become visible in the world” — Rene Magritte

The Proxies investigates postmodern notions of identity by exploring questions of individuality and the construction of the self. I consider how meaning is generated by employing semiotics and coding the images through the juxtaposition of culturally loaded iconography.
