“Nobody Here, There’s Nobody at All!”

“I’m Doing so Well have You Heard?”

“Be Right Here and Forever You’ll Stay”

These paintings are a triptych I made in my junior year of high school as part of my sustained investigation. When I made these I had just watched supereyepatchwolf’s video on liminal spaces, and it got me thinking about how I would feel trapped in a space where I was the only person left. I ended up making up an entire scenario about this where I’m stuck in this endless building in a white empty void endlessly wandering and missing my loved one’s. I also took some inspiration from Edward Hopper’s Urban Isolation paintings

All of them use gestural brushstrokes and color to convey intense emotions with the last one also using space and perspective to do so. The first meant to capture mania, the second deep sorrow, and the last intense loneliness.
