Remarkable (version 1)

Remarkable (version 1)

I just was not satisfied with any of the images within this series, so I pulled up the original scanned drawing for the After the Crash A series and went to work on rearranging parts of it around into something I felt was more tolerable.

I actually incorporated some signage from world war two Europe in a layer underneath the main layer. The main layer is most of what you see here, but you’ll also catch some words from signs here and there as they show through some of the small deleted spaces.

My Wrecked Tangles art works are reminiscent of cubism somewhat, but they are not cubist artworks. The fact that I’m using the rectangular shape as a motif throughout these series, however, can remind a viewer of cubism.

It’s really more of an interdimensional quality that I’m trying to give expression to, as the semi-hidden words and items show through the cracks of stress and entropy. It can be a capturing of disjointed pieces from a full cycle of reincarnation, as the legs of a person transverses different boulevards of memory and experience.

I simply titled this piece Remarkable because I realized that the word remarkable is suggestive of re-visiting a path of thought, a remembered event, of returning one’s eye to something that caught it for a second look. I find that first looks can be deceiving, so investigations, then, become necessary, and what opens up before you can be revolutionary at times.
