Navigating the Night

Navigating the Night

$900.00

On view at the Highlandtown Art Gallery, Baltimore. On sale there or on this website. Angels ascend and descend a ladder in Jacob’s dream. In a parallel fashion, at night we cycle in and out of REM sleep, weaving our own dreams. In this painting of the “Navigation” series, the stairways lead into the mysteries of the subconscious. I was inspired by my photographs of the ladders used in the Taos Pueblo, which allow access to sacred chambers (kivas) from above. Quotes from Shakespeare about the night, dreams, sleep and the moon are layered into the work. Mixed media with acrylic paint, altered photographs, altered papers. 20 x 16 x 1.5” . Free shipping.
