SUMMARY:The Art League - August emBODY Art Exhibit 2023
DESCRIPTION:My painting Actaeon from my Perspective Series (48×36″ mixed media on wood panel) was selected by Ahrong Kim\, juror for the August emBODY Exhibit at The Art League\, Alexandria\, VA. \nI currently also have a smaller painting Harvest Dawn from my Landscape Colorfield series in Gallery 75 of The Art League (same location). \nVisit this art show throughout the month of August any day of the week\, 10 am – 6 pm.\nFew words about Actaeon:\nThis is a painting from my  Perspective Series – a revival of the tools\, namely perspective grids\, invented by Renaissance artists. I first applied this depth-simulation trick to my otherwise intuitive abstract art in 2018. This immediately generated a somewhat surreal look\, asking for more elements of dream-like visuals\, such as stylized human figures. Inspired by Greek mythology—Actaeon the hunter became the hunted\, watching the goddess of hunters\, Artemis (Roman Diana)\, bathing—he was transformed into a stag by the goddess. This story is the iconic motif by which Actaeon is recognized in ancient art and Renaissance and post-Renaissance depictions. I portrayed him as a contemporary superhero while preserving the antique and Renaissance appeal as part of my Perspective series. The sun also plays a vital role in balancing the composition and further establishing the ancient pagan mood (sun worship).
