Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Peter Acheson
Q: What role do non-paint materials play in your paintings?
Acheson explains that adding non-paint elements disrupts traditional expectations of painting and expands the field of perception, allowing the painted surface to read against other materials.
Peter Acheson
Q: Can you explain the four levels concept and how it informed Four Levels and related works?
He describes four levels as a metaphysical framework influenced by Forrest Bess and Jung, with the levels ranging from physical to ethereal, guiding both subject matter and the way imagery is organized.
Peter Acheson
Q: How does it feel to see such a wide survey of your work in one show?
Acheson says the retrospective-like presentation is valuable for recognizing a consistent set of ideas across decades, even as the imagery and materials have evolved, and he appreciates the curator's emphasis on variety.
Caitlin Keogh
Q: How does scaling up these rose drawings to large paintings affect their tension and recognizability?
Keogh discusses how smaller formats feel nearly real while larger works shift into a more abstract, almost theatrical spatial experience, prompting questions about recognizability and formal perception.
Caitlin Keogh
Q: Can you tell me about these drawings that are titled by the date of execution and are floral?
Keogh explains that the drawings began in 2019 as plein air studies near rose gardens, were later enlarged into paintings, and that the paintings mimic the drawings' line weight and proportion while remaining monochrome.
