Lacking

​

(from Lacan)

Lacking is the thing that allows you to be loved. The person who loves tries to fulfil the lack. These paintings are in complete, they lack. The viewer is given the opportunity to try to complete, to attempt to make whole* - to "love", because of the lack. 

*it is not made whole, but the dynamic/ opportunity to play to role of holding the completing object in the face of this lack, is to love.
