Opis

From the artist: âI remember walking down the hill from Four Corners to Kamini, bewildered by the sun and the sweltering heat... I saw a young girl picking berries from the bushes and eating them, her face covered in the red purple and blue. She looked happy and when I passed her I saw that her T-shirt read âHappyâ. The book represents an essential part of the artistâs practice, when he is away from his studio in LA. Sketchbooks and loose pieces of hotel stationery become the main outlets for new ideas and observations. Memories of Hydra continues the artist's proactive approach of publishing site specific sketchbooks, in full, which provide a peek into his work outside the studio. Those sketchbooks, in turn, inform larger works on canvas created when the memory wanes and becomes hazier.
