Machine wash only

Objects as Windows to the Inner Realm

Machine Wash Only, acrylic on wheeled canvas, 8 x8 in. (each), painted in 2016  

Dirty laundry. Do you often find  yourself at peace, waiting for the long final minutes of a machine wash cycle? Staring into the circling motion within a square, there is something significant about it.

The painter paints heartless washing machines, drumming heartbeats, chaotic yet calming as it becomes white noise, muting out the rest of the world. The long moment is short lived by the beeps of the repeating days.

The paintings extend her experience to the viewers, who are empowered to set the works in motion and replay the circling motion.
