Highly stylized forms, deliberately irreverent color, the paintings move the motif away from religious representation and into a psychic space of devastation, refuge, and endurance.
The child returns again and again to the Madonna’s lap, yet it is the self-returning to its own holding, as if a higher register of being were gathering the desperate self into its arms.In one work, the Madonna vanishes, leaving only the child in a scream-like state, where personal helplessness meets the wounded world.
