LA-LIKE: Fools Gold Dust (Mimic) Paintings

Various Versions of The Fools Gold Dust (Mimic) Shadow Paintings, 2014-2016

A series of “paintings”, made from pulverized Fools Gold Dust. They are quite dark when not directly in the light – the surface sparkles and comes alive/is activated only when looked at under spotlight or directly in the sun (soooo very LA…) The scale is determined by what the painting is next to/in proximity with.

Black gesso and pulverized pyrite crystallized in epoxy on canvas, various sizes.
