“We Are Never Alone”acrylic gouache and pencil on paper12 x 9 inches2019One of the paintings kozy made for our exhibition “The Exodus” at Nucleus Portland. This was the first time we made some 2D dimensional art to pair with the “bunny primitives” sculptures series that kozy has been making the last 6 years. When filling pages sketching ideas for new sculptures forms, Dan always thought the results of the results looked like cave paintings of early man and decided to make a few paintings for the show like this. Kozy liked the concept and ran with it, experimenting by complexifying the technique to add color, In this painting, we had a dual intention of describing the peaceful intermingling of all the different shapes and colors of the creatures, but also, like in the "Shrine of the Ancestors" painting, we were thinking about the idea of ancestors still being present with us, guiding us, and helping us towards happiness.The painting is on view and available now at Nucleus Portland! -- source link
