Lydia Kinney 'Lily Pads'
Lily pads, Acrylic on Panel, 2021.
Artist Statement
I paint spaces that do not and cannot exist. These environments are fragmented and disrupted to open their possibility: anything can happen in this space. These paintings are homes for tight spaces with detached floors, stars falling through skylights, and rooms just constructed enough to vacillate from images of interiors to paint for paint’s sake. I fully employ the freedom of these abstract spaces and their detachment from reality. The work is a reference point to my own discomfort and unease, an illustration of anxiety. These spaces visualize uncertainty in the search for exploring all possibilities.
