Flesh Against The Frame continues the mediation begun in Shape Capital. Wood, fabric, fasteners, seams, and straps merge into a new body that struggles with its limitations. The shapewear materials, once intended to invisibly contour and smooth body shapes under clothing, lose their character, are brought to the surface, exposed, laid bare, and fixed in a state of tension. Their elastic material stretches as it is forced into rectangular shapes. The wood of the stretcher frame is not a support, but a place of distortion. The painting lies over it, groping for contours that can no longer function. Form and color move between imitation and distortion of the old, occasionally swapping curvature and surface; searching for a new body language; negotiating their frame. The once tamed curves become part of new landscapes between tension and relief, renegotiating physicality: fixed form? fluid state?
