- Biographical Information
-
This piece is from a series of "heart" works that were first exhibited in a solo show in Sept/Oct 88 in Campbell Hall, WOSC, upon the completion of a sabbatical leave I took in 1987/88. The heart theme is based on that long used affectionate symbol in western civilization; I have employed it for its associated, positive attributes. This piece as any others from the series, becomes meaningful I think, not in any particular representational properties that hearts may have, but rather in the juxtapositioning of visual forms, colors, lines, and textures that occurs in their residual two dimensional spaces.
