Ken Jacobs Red Sky, 2019
Digital painting on archival paper
Literature: "Paintings, in their lack of dimensionality, long for depth. We attribute that to them probably because we project onto them and then feel suffocated if there is no sense of an airy depth. Illusion, of course! And only we among the animals paint.
A flat painted surface, a texture at most, reaches out to limiting borders on a skin held taut. Definitely a thing human-made, emblematic of human culture. A transformed if not decorated skin often with a quality of magic to it."
-Ken Jacobs
