Primed
"Primed" is a series of works that explores the process of priming. Inspired by house painters when applying a primer using their paint rollers and putty knives to prepare the wall before applying the final paint. Seeing them doing this process gives me the pure pleasure of experiencing a visual moment of the simplicity and beauty of motion in its purest and most honest expression. Movement in the present moment is life. In this series, I tried to capture and explore this simple priming process by being in the moment while applying acrylic paint and gesso using a putty knife over a semi-finished painting that acted as an underpainting. And the result of the “priming in the moment” process gives my work a fresh new look.
