Adapted from a statement by the curator and artist, Clintel Steed--
“During millennia of human art making, I feel that the one thing that always keeps us coming back to figurative art is the mystery of the figure, the complexity of it. Through time, at the real moments of understanding what is important and what matters, we come back to the figure. To understand the universe, life, pain happiness... I think that all the paintings I’ve selected are a dialogue, a representation of the need to understand and express the human form, and the passion to express our relationship with ourselves and our reaction to the world that we exist in.
I hope that people come away from (Human Mysteries) with the feeling of a frozen moment of the human experience, to be better understood and to be remembered!”
