A reference to one’s origins is an important component of the work of many contemporary artists. "RED/YELLOW: Connect" is the second in a series of collaborative projects by Kathy Lovas and Susan Sponsler. My Red Work is based on the indexical nature of such references, while Susan's Yellow Work is an exploration of “naming” in the creation of self. "RED/YELLOW: Connect" represents a merging of our sensibilities to the process of art making, to the poignant role photography plays in speaking about one’s origins, and to the viewer’s contribution to meaning. |
