Recalibration developed as Taveras approached the first anniversary of his painting practice. The series began with a period of focused isolation and a desire to return to the world with greater energy and color.
Layers of white paint form textured grounds for vivid, spontaneous marks. The artist’s original process statement describes working in a stream of consciousness, drawing together interests in graffiti, cubism, impressionism, and surrealism.
Color against a white field
The fourteen documented paintings include Pegasus, Circuitry, Electra, Analytique, Deep Ocean, H.E.R., Full Bloom, Careful, Secondarily, Supersonic, H.I.M., Primarily, Ebb & Flow, and Finder. Their shared white grounds give each concentrated passage of color room to move.
