Mizu I
Nancy Constandelia's process of painting aims to enhance and recalibrate the phenomenal body, in order to slow down and resist the culture of speed in contemporary life. Inspired by the slow aesthetic of Hiroshi Sugimotos photographic series 'Theaters,' Nancy uses painting similarly to ground oneself in time, space and materiality. She layers different temporal trajectories which encourage a state of consciousness and presence that is beyond the durational aspect of time. Nancy's reductive yet expressive works may look empty, but like Sugimotos photographs, they are full of information.
