“Words are integral to what I do. I come to my visual perceptions through language; the subject of my work loosely framed within an ongoing dialogue between the articulation of surface and the politics of existence in which I find myself. These are experiments in painting; manifestations of grapplings between the conscious (ego and desire) and the unconscious or the meditative (serendipity and chance). The moment reassessed through the language of painting; the element of the poetic and the lyrical reaffirmed by the gesture and the line.”
-Anne-Marie Cosgrove
