Artist Statement : Scott Phillips

In the process of experience we often store information in our short and
or long-term memory.  In doing so we gain a catalog of items detailed
in a relative format that we later retrieve from memory.  Upon retrieval we
relate our experience to current situations that too have short and lasting
effects.  My investigation is a visual exploration of my everyday encounters
with experience in relation to my recalled memory.  I use paint as a
transformative element while enabling my use of object to work between
the realms of two and three-dimensional pieces, between memory and
situation.  In doing so, I question what it is to be object relative to current
situation. The duality of paint and object, memory and experience,
accentuates the visceral, immediate and long-term responses I
am investigating.
