This chronological study of my more mature or realized works from the past three years is broken down into three principal areas of focus: sculptural installations, video installations and drawings. After establishing a personal and philosophical foundation, the architectonic, theatrical, cinematic and physiological structures represented in these works are addressed with regard to formal and conceptual concerns. I address the transition of my identity as a painter to that of an artist working with video installation and large-scale drawings. This concept of existing between contrasting states of being has become a recurring fixture in my recent work. This place of transition is revealed as a working-through or visual investigation of the relationship between theatricality, death, politics and religion. A primary point of philosophical reference is the work of Merleau-Ponty and his concepts of visibility and a lived body consciousness. Additional philosophical works from Gilles Deleuze and Jean-Francois Lyotard are cited in relation to my art making process. Diverse literary and art historical references and sources are also cited, from El Greco's The Burial of Count Orgaz<italic/> to Melville's Moby Dick<italic/>, from Didier Maleuvre to Copley's Watson and the Shark<italic/>."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2013-05-22T17:34:47Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Silverman, Hugh J"},{"label":"dcterms.creator","value":"Hess, Daniel Lawrence"},{"label":"dcterms.dateAccepted","value":"2013-05-22T17:34:47Z"},{"label":"dcterms.dateSubmitted","value":"2013-05-22T17:34:47Z"},{"label":"dcterms.description","value":"Department of Studio Art"},{"label":"dcterms.extent","value":"57 pg."},{"label":"dcterms.format","value":"Application/PDF"},{"label":"dcterms.identifier","value":"http://hdl.handle.net/1951/59692"},{"label":"dcterms.issued","value":"2012-05-01"},{"label":"dcterms.language","value":"en_US"},{"label":"dcterms.provenance","value":"Made available in DSpace on 2013-05-22T17:34:47Z (GMT).
