Cupid’s garden is an erotic landscape and a portrait. It collapses differentiation of time and linear progression– referring simultaneously to pre-modern tapestries and subcultural posters in the same breath. Eroticized material (purple velvet and shiny plastic) from disparate time periods amass in amalgamations of velveteen medieval décor and contemporary pop-cultural plastic glam. An economy of obsessive and self-destructive love propels the paintings. Stitching becomes less ornamentation and more surgical construction; the work is both a subject and site where fastidious care and attention may be exhaustively exerted upon.
