  • "I think it's all kind of this exploration to figure out the perfect soup of all of the elements that I like. Like the elements of the invention, the elements of weird points of view, or like stretching a finger too far, or moments like that. I think I'm constantly trying to figure out a painting that has the perfect amount of all of those, like a weird alchemy, because I like paintings that feel like magic. I like paintings where you look in one part and it's completely different, or contradicts in a positive way another aspect of the painting. I think in order for that to happen, there has to be a lot of different ingredients. And so, thinking back to some of my older work, where maybe there was less variety in those ingredients, I'm trying to spice it up." —Rebecca Ness
