April Hammock's work consists of abstract paintings focusing on form and spaces intertwining, breaking apart, and building. The work is influenced by both metaphysics and a perceived ambiguity between exterior and interior spaces.
Capricious Games
A surface, an edge
Two parts oscillate
Colors communicate; thoughts, actions
Images connect the familiar with barely tangible
Tattered bridges
Grounds shift, water rises
A camouflaged facade, nestled deep in its catatonic environment, that is compelled to lie:
“Time is Still.”
The rich, bountiful beast, who defiantly grins at the winds;
only they know what is ahead.
A consciousness that each entity strives to possess.
