“Whether I paint skies, roads, houses or trees, I use light and shadow in a very deliberate way to communicate my ideas and emotions. I am interested in light as a life-giving force that binds us— a common presence we feel in our separate lives, reminding us of our shared reality. In this body of work, I have chosen the sun as a symbol, and I define it as a unifying message of love. My objective in painting this exhibition is to express the beautiful and poetic power of light, and I hope the message that is discovered is one that leads us out of darkness and reveals truth and beauty in all its manifestations.” – Mark Beck
