A series of three small paintings that investigate ideas and things represented with concentric circles and that are the first tools we use to survive as human beings. (In addition to Nipple, Sun, and Breath). Thinking about Lucy Lippard’s book “Overlay” (1983) and her argument about images that persist over time in human culture, I continue to notice the circle within a circle in many images. Mainly, I have been considering this form’s contemplative and meditative force.
