Kim Modise
“I am trying to do archive the repetition of lines in the paintings which I do apply at the end of my painting process subject. The main reasons behind are to actual hide the image or subject matter and yet still have the opportunity to imprecisely see the image through the lines. One must actually learn to see the reality and yet at the same time wonder what’s hidden behind the lines. We need to train our eyes to hunt for the reality. The lines are carefully painted and it takes quite a while to archive the similarity I want and if it happens that one of the line doesn’t match the next line, it’s a draw back for me and I have to restart the line from sketch so as to accomplish the correspondence of the next line. The bottom line is for the viewer out there to look deeply in the painting and pass through the lines and get the message / subject matter out.”
