The Human Synapse


 After the weekend painting in Park Extension, I was a tourist in my own city, this painting was inspired by the contrast in cultures. In particular, there was a scene I painted of an Indian and a Greek restaurant juxtaposed and it reminded me of a neuro-muscular synapse. Its something we study in class, the junction between the nerves and the muscle that control movement. In the middle of this painting is a synapse, the juxtaposition, and the rest of the painting shows multi-cultural interactions. This is one example of how the location painting can influence the abstract.
