THE BORDELLO OF THE SUBCONSCIOUS

A conceptual collage-portraiture work, ‘The Bordello of the Subconscious' aims to embody several disciplines of my art making. Namely, collage from found materials in my studio environment, an application of paint in an abstract expressionist manner which props up a representational portraiture style in the foreground. The work is about the organization and maintenance of clear, concise and efficient minds. It's about taking the time to focus and understand one's latent and conscious intents. The importance of meditation, self reflection and awareness, and in constructing clear paths, goals and reasonable expectations of oneself.The mind is a wonderful thing. It behaves like a computer. Processing information, visual and auditory cues, sorting through our other senses into banks and storage facilities. It's the world's fastest, most efficient library and warehouse. A biological and metaphysical organ, our minds are networks of neurons and synapses, brain matter and tissue - highly complex molecular structures. It drives and processes our emotions, thoughts, connections, all in the blink of an eye.Our minds are equally as important as our other bodily functions. We must nurture and protect our mental faculties with persistence and vigour. The alternative would be far worse; the decay of our beings which leads to erroneous organizations of our bodies, metabolic rates, blood pressure, hormonal changes and imbalances, organ failure, a lower immune system, pain and suffering. It's my hope that through positive empowerment and conscious efforts, we are better equipped to create the most optimal version of ourselves.
