Deon Venter - Flight 182 - 2007-2008

"What we cannot see becomes as relevant as what we can see. Though we build the scene in our mind’s eye from the visual evidence being presented, it is the duality of visible and invisible elements that builds a tension. The double entendre of structure/obstruction, and subject/reduction causes us to ask questions. We question the nature of the painterly process and what realism and representation really mean in a broader interpretive context. What is being represented becomes a device to express less tangible truths, and on a more universal level – the very nature of truth." John K. Grande 2008, Artforum

“As a painter my goal in documenting these tragedies, is not only to memorialize, but to attain beautiful paintings that will, in their very execution, bring some resolution, both emotionally and intellectually
” Deon Venter, 2008
