Chlorosis
(Love Sick)
Made using a
range of materials and media’s: ink, Gouache and synthetic polymer paint on
paper. A compiled collection of 24 portraits comprise Chlorosis, they were
based on Polaroid snapshots of people that she knew onto newspaper clippings of
strangers. Thin and exquisite use of colour washes suggests projections,
another form of being.
Measuring
your own grave
Many of
Dumas’ paintings start out as photographs that have a subjective/objective view
that focuses on a particular moment in time, like my project of using old
family photographs to portray a capture of a moment/memory. Dumas then adds the
image with a meaning that gets distorted and played around with, objects and
people are depicted in the frame, it is mainly women, children and people in
colour that are used.
