These Fluid Paintings are a visual
exploration of the relationship of transience and permanence in art. The original
“painting” for each work was short lived, enduring in its liquid state for only
a few seconds. The images I recorded with the camera are the two-dimensional records of
three-dimensional fluid works that ceased to exist almost as soon as I created them. Each
photograph, however, has become a distinct, and now more permanent, work in its own right.
These images are the only trace of the original artwork’s short-lived existence and
exemplify the role of art in creating the illusion of permanence in a transitory world.
