Static
Cynthia Friedlob
There could be a double meaning to this title. The angled, crisscrossing, jagged lines that seem to crackle and crash into each other can clearly represent the annoying noise we call static, that irritating, humming, buzzing that no one I’ve ever encountered appreciates. But also in common usage, static can mean still, unmoving, unchanging, often with a negative connotation. How peculiar that a word can refer to a lively yet grating sound at the same time that it means something stationary and immovable and, perhaps by inference, quiet.
Maybe there’s a triple meaning to this title. Think of that shock of “static” electricity that we’ve all experienced on a dry day. That’s a very energetic charge. Or – yet another meaning – consider the slang use of the word which means angry criticism or obstruction.
I confess that I prefer the term as it’s defined in physics: “Of or relating to bodies at rest or forces that balance each other.” This original, one-of-a-kind pen and ink drawing represents those forces that balance each other. Movement and stillness in harmony.
This drawing was custom matted and framed for a recent gallery show.
