Richard Colman interview on Fecal Face.
26 Sep 2007
LA based artist Richard Colman has a short interview on Fecal Face about his new body of work and his current solo, The Ghost at White Walls in San Francisco.
In the interview, Colman talks about disappearance:
__”Well the idea for the ghost sort of started out because my paintings tend to Have a lot of the old sketches on the panels before I finally get to the Image that I like and they have a ghost-like quality to them. Then as I Thought more about the title the ghost, I started to think about some of my Own feelings of being detached from my life, physically there but not really Present, you know? I have become increasingly busier in the past few years So I’ve been feeling sort of like I have been disappearing from my own life, So the show sort of has a lot to do with that I guess.
The characters in this set of paintings are sort of being swallowed up by The compositions, even becoming the composition. The end result represents The transition or metamorphosis of the character, changing into something Completely different from what they physically are.”
Scroll for a lof of images featured in the show. Gorgeous new work, go see it it in person before the show closes October 6th.
Colman’s work will also be on view both at Preview Art Fair in Berlin, and at the Zoo Art Fair in London, presented by v1 gallery.
