OGROST. the mask is made from recycled car parts and finished with sanded oil paints. The border and the background are from one of my paintings, CITIES WITHOUT CARS.
I often explore colours using the invert button to see possibilities and in this case the inverted image gave me a start to the twins. As with my other work, I work by response, I don't start with narrative or representation. The materials prompt response which is then focused first toward what feels right and eventually to some kind of representation. I made the mask using this process, the background painting (though in this case I decided to add text), the arrangement of the mask on the painting for photography and finally the digital additions.

Though I trained in Ceramics, I had exposure to sculpture while in art school and after many years as a ceramicist, I moved into sculpture exploring mediums until I discovered car parts, welding and shovels. It's been downhill ever since. During my car part exploration, I was also a transportation activist. I discovered car parts in Maine in 2005, moved to Watertown, NY in 2009, to Kingston, Ontario in 2011 and Fort Erie Ontario in 2020. My art career has consisted of solo shows, grants for community based art and schools and an art activity printing t-shirts with car parts and tires that I presented at festivals, art centres and schools. I currently have some gallery representation, but am mostly going the on-line sales route.
