If the task was to find oneself, then the crisis for the postmodern subject is that nowhere is home, everything shifts and changes. What is the reflection in the mirror that ‘vanity’ holds? She refuses now to be the ‘site’ of another’s desire and reflects back to you the insubstantiality of your projections.
-Marsha Meskimmon
Opposing truth to nature, my paintings are an attempt at the representation of the self as well as the individual in the painting.
This contemporary process is the by-product of my life experiences, dependent upon the immediacy of the moment, describing mood and self-perception.
