How I went to read about Rothko after someone compared my MOTHERCORE NO1 piece to his and found a connection because as An artist I feel I also need to “strip away one further layer and bring focus to the inner world” as well as this feeling that each piece I am thinking about is completely different, I’m working on paper lamps, drawings, fridge paintings and planning quilts and patchworks simultaneously while Rothko “never truly settled on a style but rather was constantly experimenting, seeking the form that best expressed the content of that moment”
ROTHKO book foreword by Christopher Rothko
“These works touch us because they know exactly ‘where we live’. They speak to us, imparting a message akin to ‘this is what it feels like to feel this way.’ They are essentially the painted expression of what it is to be human and alive, filled with joy and sorrow, aspiration, and despair, fears and hopes, and fears about our hopes.”
