Black #2 (installation overview)

This overview of the site-relational installation, Black #2, (2020) illustrates its unitarian presence. The execution of this work involved covering the two main studio walls in gold acrylic paint from the entrance and around onto the west and north walls creating a golden alcove.The paint is applied with overarching brush strokes referencing, in part, early decorative wallpaper patterns of Christopher Dresser, William Morris or later Art Deco design. On the floor of the studio, a square of oil tar sands (121.92 x 121.92 cm) is set at a 45 degree angle to the corner where the west and north walls meet.The painterly gestures seen with the tar application echo the gold paint brush strokes on the studio walls
