RICHARD O’RUSSA
Richard O'Russa's work explores the impermanence of our nature and human-made environments through abstract painting and drawing. The work becomes a reaction to and documentation of his/our existence. Made serially, it evolves within the moment of its time and its abstraction works in a language that speaks past itself, allowing the viewer to participate more fully in its meaning. As time passes further from its creation, it stands as a marker for the moment in which it is seen within the viewer's own body as it moves through time/space in front of and around the piece.
