“Call it a chromatic choreography thought and performed far beyond the pacific wall: emerging from the Chamorro villages, it’s layered in between the West Coast’s explosion of light and the East Coast where Lisa Blas has dwelled for so long. This chromatic choreography lives on in northern Europe, again between other chromatic spaces, the Giverny green and the Flemish grey. In this sense, since art can’t do more than formulate requests, ideals and desires, every canvas is a periphery that desires to temporarily be a centre, to capture the gaze and define an interior … until it passes to the next. These are dialectical canvasses: they mediate between the peripheries of the world, the periphery of vision and a centre that is nothing more than a transitory working of attention, somewhere between the free play of imagination and memory. Where have I seen this before and where do I want to see it again, for how long and where am I going from here?
Lisa Blas’s Peripheries invites you to grasp the sense of place, history and identity as a series of visual hemispheres that delineate the transitions of life in terms of colourful planes.”
