Artist Statement for Sydnei Smithjordan
|
|
|
As a romantic surrealist the main impetus of my work is the communication of explaining the idea of liberating ones mind, self and society. To see what we don’t want to see. To explain the unexplainable. To make tangible that which seemed unreachable. I reach deep into all that is true in myself and my unconscious mind; be they experience, dreamscapes or past. My pain, my joy. No one leaves this earth without experiencing tremendous pain and extreme joy. Truer than life to me is the exploration of examining religion, lesbianism, heritage, culture, sex, abuse and political life. I paint what I have seen or would like to see. I strive to enhance the things which appeal to me in each subject. By voiding certain colors, I rearrange the world as I see it by making other colors the focus.
Sources of influence… Dali, Escher, Picasso, Max Ernst, Yves Tanguy, Lee Miller, Renoir and Dorothea Tanning.
