'Two steps forward one step back" 2014
5 panels each 3’ x 72” framed separately more than 15 feet This was amazing to create, the size alone gave it control. I love being absorbed by it, I awoke each day drawn to it, had coffee with it, ate beside it — with a brush in hand ended each night the same way. |

Trust that which gives you meaning and accept it as your guide." Carl Gustav Jung
The work collectively describes what one could call visual syntax- the arrangement of parts into visual sentences that decode the relationship of their component parts. Jeanette Luchese's work comes from the development of ruminations of her unconscious, built upon the notion of simultaneously living in the inner and outer existence. It is this idea of the creation of a visual language for perceiving duality as a unified whole that drives this exhibition.
Luchese's work tickles notions of the past with art historical reference in her imagery, but is possibly the accumulation and transformation of the language that came before her, coded in her brain, mediated by creative expression. Much of the work in this exhibition plays with the human beings natural blind spot, the place in out physical vision where we simply do not see, our brain describes what it perceives to be the rest of the information. Jeanette's work aims to be the language to fill in the blanks, ultimately building new blind spots to which new syntax is accrued.
