About the Work

From the Artist

Shadow Spirits at Dusk continues the notion of melding figurative shadow images in an elusive fog-like spatial context. The emergence of one shadow combined with the erosion or fading of the other leads one to perceive an environment that is charged with a sort of push-pull, life-death, containment-freedom, or positive-negative attitude.
—From Brandywine Workshop and Archives records

There’s two shadows there. There’s one shadow going one way, and one shadow going the other way. They’re not figures. They're not human, they’re shadows. It’s as though you’re seeing a man, but he's going one way and it's gone the other way at the same time, so you could say that there's one that's moving toward life and one moving away from life.
—Excerpted from interviews conducted by Drexel University students, supervised by Jen Katz-Buonincontro, PhD, 2021–2022
