STONES HAVE VOICES | An entire language of feeling and memory has been repressed beneath rock. Hand-crafted tongues hold still, frozen for generations, yearning to speak their secrets -to discuss what they have witnessed but can not declare.
I am more than an artist. I am an interpreter for the unvoiced. I define “stone” as abstract flesh and do not restrict the classification to minerals. Stones can be statues. Stones can be children. Every “stone” reveals itself as a hardened structure housing confined significance.
My passion obligates me to study these stones; identify their unvoiced desires, question the weight of their past -acknowledge the pressure of being forced to hold a single stance eternally. I clarify their personal history, depict details of loose emotional connections, measure, affirm and reconcile their positions. I translate the internal universe restricted within stone, to make the subjects understandable by viewers who have only stood outside with judgement and not from within with consideration; reconditioning a race of people who stare at surfaces objectively as an audience, but never dared to approach the more private inner atmosphere of stone.
I sign each painting with two letters KZ -the first letter of my first name and the last letter of my last name because whenever I approach the canvas I am giving the totality of myself, from beginning to end.
Be you for you.
