House Quilt No. 1 (Bear Club) 2024, oil on aluminum composite panel within mixed media frame: wood, paper, aluminum, acrylic In the tradition of barn quilts, this painting is based off of a quilt made by my great, great grandmother. The frame it lives in is based on my own house and the back porch wherein the viewer looks out from some of my other paintings. Instead of standing within this spot as the viewer, the vantage point is backwards and inwards. The white siding and this back porch are recurring symbols of power and fortitude in my work. The frame combined with this 2-d painted image creates a sculpture. In the bottom corner there is a small door to a crawl space under my home that the previous family’s children painted “Bear Club” many decades ago. This art is about the personal mythology we have in our physical home and the world-building we practice as children and parents.
