SUMMARY:Eli Portman & Gallery Sitka Artists — Art & Wine | Summer Show
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an art show featuring the work of watercolor painter\, Eli Portman. \nEli Portman: Artist’s Statement\nI am fascinated with the concept of perception. Many experiences in my life have made me feel quite alone. In those moments\, I feel unique in the way that I perceive things. And yet at the same time\, I strongly believe that we as human beings share many experiences\, many thoughts\, feelings\, and reactions.\nWith my work\, I approach the dissonance between perceived unique individual solitude in a crowded environment\, and the commonness and sameness of such feelings.\nUsing detailed line work and heavy colors\, I illustrate moments of ‘unique’ isolation that we all share. The feeling of walking alone while viewing social excitement through nighttime windows\, or working while others play to their contentment.\nWith controlled ink lines\, I capture shadows and lights. Familiar angles\, familiar feelings brought on by time of day or night\, placement and presence in one’s environment. I manipulate the openness and tightness of visual spaces and interiors to reflect the claustrophobia of society’s open space and the endless emptiness of being crowded and crushed.\nWith strong colors\, I attract the viewer’s eyes to specific spaces within the composition\, reminding them of their own perceptions of environment\, and that I\, like them\, find myself in there too. By capturing these scenes\, I present the commonality between them and me. Though they do not know me\, we are united by the sameness of the humanity we all share.\nThe art exhibitions that affect me most strongly are the ones that remind me of myself. Of what I love\, of what I find beautiful\, and of what I fear. We are always looking for a certain degree of reflections of ourselves. In images\, in friends\, in pets\, in communities\, in romantic partners. With my artwork\, I attempt to bridge the gaps of solitude by harnessing that innate search for our reflections. With familiar scenes\, bright colors\, and fine details of everyday objects and structures\, I create scenes that are familiar in their individuality.
