Fear + Superstitious
One of the strategies I use when creating artwork is to use a dictionary. I open it to random pages and find new words to paint, thus capturing my imagination through my subconscious.
When creating art, I start by choosing a word, imagine related concepts and define their association through imagination and experience. I use this concept often because it leads to the main idea of the signified and then the relationship of the word. This method provides abstract representations, such as uncanny and surrealistic moods and atmospheres within the painting.
My last painting method is through experimentation of a concept in a book or an article, and I find a word with which I am not familiar. I try to make a sentence through painting using the meaning and signified concept of the word. I create a grammar structure with the content of the reference from which I retrieved the word. By painting this, I relay my understanding of the word’s relation to other references through subjectivity.
