Artist Statement for Michael Bonardi
|
|
|
I am interested in creating marks that do not represent known images but rather the medium and the tools interaction. I insist in using black and white paint for the same reasons a scientist would limit his control; I do not want to complicate things. I intend to give the marks a hierarchy as if they were on a pedestal. In composing the marks there is an intense skill of hand/body eye coordination which is very similar to that of a ceramist whom controls a hump of clay through their body the wheel and especially through their hands. Just as pianist Glen Gould has two brains in each hand a potter has to perform precisely sometimes doing several tasks with different fingers. Being a ceramist and also a glass blower has caused my performing in the moment to translate to my two dimensional work.
