Progress photos from my work on the paintings for "The 12th House" . The exhibition will consist of several painting cycles, the present one depicted here is of six large paintings of thistles. The thistles are highly meaningful symbols with multiple interpretations, many of which fall in line with the concept for "The 12th House"...
I made the photos of the thistles that I am using as the basis of these paintings in the spring of 2012 while working on the videos for the exhibition "purgatorium". It was not clear that I would use them for paintings until the summer of 2013 when I first devised the concept for "The 12th House". I began the paintings in early December 2013. Each painting takes between two to three weeks to complete.
