Martha Fleury

 

“Whether dealing with landscape or memory, my body of work deals with the relationship between dualities. Imagery vacillates between the literal and ambiguous: a play between two halves of the whole. By manipulation in both proportion and context, each variation becomes just one possible construction of a continually changing narrative.

In the floral series, my focus is on "looking". I choose the sensual luster and permanence of oil medium to execute the transient beauty of flowers. Most set ups include the mirror, glass vase or shadow as devices of distortion. A leit motiv of my art practice is our inability to see "truth", that we see only a version of perception, a vision of truthfulness."
