Blue Skies

By Victoria Goite

My work exists in a realm of endless imagination where illogical images, dreams, memories, and intuition take visual form with trivial aspects of daily life accompanied by a portrait of an imagined woman (who represents my self consciousness) through oil and acrylic paint. Here, everything we can possibly think of are just as tangible as everyday objects. Since I was a child, I always visit and revisit those same kinds of imagery - ones that scare me, intrigue me, confuse me. The results, which are never predictable, come out in representations of my consciousness through the woman(s) that I paint. They are just as complex and meaningful as they are in our unconscious minds.With influences as strong as Takato Yamamoto and Salvador Dali, my work is a reflection of my existence that is a part of everyone else’s, or what I would like to call it our collective unconsciousness.
