Correlate I have been intrigued by life’s complex divisions of space, time and location that have affected my family since I was a child. For the past three years I have experienced these realities and complexities first hand. Thus, I have been able to explore how the two sides of my division correlate both in my daily life and through my art. In wanting to describe aspects of my life from both places along with the necessity to navigate between these separate realities, I have created sets of paint- ings that include one from observation and one entirely from memory of the same subject. The two paintings within each set were created simultaneously, but in opposite locations. Painting through recollection not only allows me to better see and attend to the specificities of each place, but it also solidifies that each painting, and inherently each place, correlate with each other to create a whole existence.
