Painting Acts: Velos/Veils ~ ink on satin.


Interested in how a body comes into language and how the form can mirror the shape of the written, this way of painting uses the indexicality of saldaña’s silhouetted shadow as a guide. Rendering an indexical presence that notates the current state of a bodily form, this method is also influenced by analog film which registers light and shadow indexically.
