Invisible Rapture was created 2007-2008. In this body of work I focused on some specific movement disciplines such as yoga, tai chi and ballet. Each of these disciplines develops beautiful and functional form by training an intense internal focus. One of the fundamental elements for each of these disciplines is breath. I became interested in creating paintings that expressed the rise and fall of energy felt when breathing, to me, this relates to the sense of light and shade we use to describe optical or aural experiences or objects.
