Joan Barber "Skin"
Flomenhaft
This event has ended.
What typifies Joan Barber’s art in these works she titled Skin is a saucy, edgy, tongue-in-cheek wink at the viewer. She is a voyeur-painter of people’s memories and interior narratives. She paints quickly, keeping the brush moving over everything to sustain her access to these inner worlds. She wants to prevent subconscious motives from escaping, from dilution by premature reflection. In her paintings she captures the tension, bliss, confusion, sexual plots, plans, disorders, sorrow, whispers, naked resilience, passion, impudence and restlessness that smolders beneath us all. Her art suggests our impatience for ecstasy. She says,”I take it all as mine because it is no different than my own.”
