Artist Statement:
Few things are more deeply human than the desire to be understood. We all hope that someone else might see the world as we do, even if only for a moment. When that happens, the distance between two lives narrows in a way that's hard to put into words.
Understanding asks something difficult of us. It asks us to stay with another person's experience a little longer than feels comfortable, instead of rushing to interpret it through our own. That becomes increasingly difficult when so much of our attention is already spoken for. Listening gives way to waiting for our turn. Before long, we can spend an entire conversation speaking to a version of someone we've constructed in our own minds.
Details: This original artwork is a one-of-a-kind oil painting on a 48 x 36 inch aluminum panel framed in an ornate dark grey wood frame.
Artist: Danny Gordo

About the Echoes collection
We live within an atmosphere of distraction so constant that it begins to feel natural. Attention is siphoned quietly, an inch at a time, until distraction seeps into what should be sacred and the sacred learns to perform instead of simply exist. We reach for the phantasm and call it the Form, mistaking the shadow for the thing casting it.
Echoes is a meditation on what happens when presence gives way to performance, and the most intimate parts of human experience begin to take their shape from forces outside us. The series inhabits the distance between what is genuine and what merely resembles it, asking how much of our inner lives remains our own when we are no longer fully present within them.
please note:
Colors vary from screen to screen and are represented as accurately as possible. The oil paint and glossy, protective varnish creates shimmering textures depending on the angle of the viewer.
