The Painter's Keys Community For Artists

Roberta Faulhaber Online Art Listing

Roberta Faulhaber Artist Statement: I locate my self in my paintings, exploring, as others have before me, by demanding complete visibility in the painting process, a visibility that emphasizes bodily movement through gesture, using the Van Eyck oil painting technique, which makes possible almost unlimited transparent layering. Conciously, a trace is left of every movement that occurs throughout the painting process.

The gestural layering of my experience to the canvas intensifies my awareness of the physical structure of the paint as it solidifies. In this way I build a bridge between my vision and the actions it engenders as I paint and the viewer. We interact by reading the visual body which is acted out in the painting. Using this ancient technique, the work becomes like a skin. Surface tensions, interfaces, layers, interact purposefully and inadvertently and leave traces of the vast reality that is our body. Paintings become surrogate bodies to be explored, not as a reflection, imitation or photograph, but by virtual movement, color-generated touch, using an inner balance as we use our eyes, learning to walk through the breathing canvas.
