Unity
54" x 42.5"
Acrylic Paint and Broken Glass on Linen


This was my cumulative project, to be completed as part of the graduation process. An art thesis paper, if you will. It has to do with the evolutionary idea that all things are composed and were formed of the same particles, stardust, chemicals; and also the idea that living beings are expansive universes within themselves.  This was the most time-consuming and ambitious project I ever attempted, and I'm extremely proud of it.  All of the six canvases were made by hand from lumber, as was the glass broken by hand.  Up close and personal, you can really engage with the dimensional layers of color and texture I achieved using glass bead and iridescent mediums.
