| Artsists’ Statement |
| The first phase of the Make Me Crazy Make Me Think exhibition was the culmination of ten months of collaborative work by artists, Karl Olsen (www.karlrichardolsen.com) and Kim Martin. The concept was to paint our individual self portraits together, side by side at the same time, on the same canvas. The process of painting "ourselves" in this relative setting, the work reflects those dynamics in subtle and sometimes dramatic ways. How we worked, discussed, and managed the totality of each painting was tense, thought provoking, stimulating and included continual compromise with individual and collective interpretation. The result was 11 highly differing pieces averaging 6' x 6'.
Karl and I have much more to say. Our project will be expanded and continued in 2010. |
