"Intermission" depicts a scene of figures anxiously coming together after a period of isolation. Made in the brief reprieve between Delta and Omicron, when people were starting to interact again, this painting reflects that feeling of uncertainty and caution. The title “Intermission” implies they will soon be returning to their isolation. At the time I made this I was moving around a lot and didn’t have a settled home. All I cared about was getting a dog, finding an apartment and painting. What I owned I moved from studio to studio while I worked and I think the contents of this painting were a reflection of that feeling of being unsettled.
