Discrete Movements

For the longest time I have felt that my artworks are about deconstruction. The quest to visually deconstruct things is a way of learning for me and a way to find a kind of equilibrium. Both in music and the visual arts I find it useful to break things down to their basic elements or as the Jasper Johns calls them "discreet movements." Today I find myself listening to a deconstruction of The Beatles-While My Guitar Gently Weeps, a song that Frank Sinatra called the greatest song ever recorded. And I find it absolutely spellbinding listening to Paul McCartney's baseline in isolation and then realizing how vital it is to the whole. I will today be thinking about discrete movements as I create my latest work in the studio.
