FELT SERIES

The Felt series (1998-1999) emerged from a playful experimentation with materials and techniques of the Early Works. While exploring the use of found objects, the series demonstrates how a found objects meaning is directly connected it’s context.

The paintings depict mythological fictions. Many of them examine allegories of authority, authenticity, and play.

The Felts are the first experiment with a technique called, trompe l'oeil, where the illusion of painting and the physical sculptural qualities start to merge.
