The figures are based on the faces of the closest people in my life. This work is an attempt to shed objectivity and to touch the place where emotional intimacy resides. I think of these images as embodying the closest and perhaps most raw or vulnerable moments. They are a counterpoint to some of my other works which depict connection or alienation within the larger social realm. http://shanakaplow.com/close-to-home http://shanakaplow.com/following/shanakaplow.com/close-to-home Sun, 22 Jan 2012 02:41:47 +0000 shana kaplow 2645792 <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2645792/Kaplow 411 013.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="499" width_o="800" height_o="596" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2645792/Kaplow 411 013_o.jpg" align="left" caption="&lt;i&gt;Sky Someone Entrance&lt;/i&gt;

(work in progress) : video still : 2012"/> click for Close to Home Video Project : Close to Home : Paintings and Video Projections My artworks often explore the psychological inferences held within the bodies and spaces we inhabit. Restless and shifting worlds seem most truthful to me. How do we connect to each other, to the body politic, or to the larger world? How do we relate within and to surrounding environments? I spent a month last year living in Beijing, China – in very unfamiliar surroundings. It was exhilarating because it forced to the surface my own impulses of desire, separation, and ultimately, connection. My work is a way of redefining how I experience what is close or far, what is intimate or separate. As the mother of an adopted daughter who was born in China, concepts of ‘close’ and ‘home’ for me have become expanded, ungrounded, and can be inhabited both intimately and from far distances. I like this kind of stretching and conflating - it feels like a continuum. http://shanakaplow.com/rooms http://shanakaplow.com/following/shanakaplow.com/rooms Sun, 22 Jan 2012 02:41:46 +0000 shana kaplow 2648168 <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 054 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="422" width_o="800" height_o="504" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 054 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 018 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="417" width_o="800" height_o="499" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 018 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 022 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="422" width_o="800" height_o="505" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 022 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 026 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="422" width_o="800" height_o="504" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 026 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 029 raw 72do.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="425" width_o="800" height_o="508" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 029 raw 72do_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 033 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="424" width_o="800" height_o="507" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 033 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 041 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="422" width_o="800" height_o="505" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 041 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 045 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="422" width_o="800" height_o="504" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 045 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 050 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="426" width_o="800" height_o="509" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 050 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 062 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="425" width_o="800" height_o="508" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 062 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 065 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="422" width_o="800" height_o="505" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 065 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 082 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="423" width_o="800" height_o="506" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 082 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 087 raw 72dpi.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="495" width_o="800" height_o="592" src_o="http://payload17.cargocollective.com/1/5/191759/2648168/Kaplow 211 087 raw 72dpi_o.jpg" align="left" /> http://shanakaplow.com/videos http://shanakaplow.com/following/shanakaplow.com/videos Sun, 22 Jan 2012 02:41:45 +0000 shana kaplow 2648211 Close to Home from s kaplow on Vimeo. music by kenneth kirschner Group, A Training Process from s kaplow on Vimeo.
