No Accident Is Accidental
Artist Statement
Each brush strokes and scrapings comes from my direct response to an inner directive and not from aesthetic standard. My inner directive is fueled by the psyche, a rich reservoir of unconscious material that constantly strives to come into consciousness to be integrated and makes us more whole, much of this material is biographical. The life experiences and key people from our present and past that has had impact on us. We may also access transpersonal realms that have more to do with our spiritual nature. The meaning of particular life path and our concept of and relationship to the Divine Being.
The painting process is much like dreaming, where coded messages from the unconscious express themselves in the painting.through universal and personal symbols.
When we paint in the intuitive and spontaneous fashion, one’s cellular memory can also be activated, much inner material that is beyond language or even experienced originally in our pre-language early phase of life. Very often reveals itself in this way of painting womb, birth, trauma and sexuality find expression in this modality.
Everything that we experienced is a co-creation, that everything serves us and that nothing is ever accidental.
