Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

I am utterly cap­ti­vated by the paint­ings of Canadian artist Kris Knight. Here’s an excerpt from his artist’s state­ment, which I think cap­tures the essence of these pieces so per­fectly:
Kris Knight is a Canadian painter whose work exam­ines per­for­mance in rela­tion to the con­struc­tion, por­trayal and bound­aries of sex­ual and asex­ual iden­ti­ties. Drawing from per­sonal his­to­ries of rural escapism through imag­i­na­tion, Knight paints dis­en­chanted char­ac­ters that are lost between youth and adult­hood; they hide their secrets, but des­per­ately long to let them go. His myth­i­cal and ambigu­ous por­traits are a syn­the­sis of fan­tasy and real-world mem­ory; they tip­toe between the dichotomies of pretty and men­ace, hunter and hunted, inno­cence and the erotic.
