CARON G RAND: DARK ENERGY
By Peter Frank
For years, Caron G Rand has reached in her art for an understanding of the spiritual. Some of her artworks have striven to approximate a sense of disembodied transcendence; other works have meditated on the spiritual condition itself, manifesting a kind of meta-spirituality that reflects on the presence of spiritual insight and energy within our species – our civilizations, our societies, our nations, ourselves. In her latest paintings, Rand projects beyond the human and into the heavenly. But the heavens she renders are not the heavens of gods and ghosts, but of galaxies and voids, stars and singularities. The Dark Energy paintings would seem to take their cue from recent images of the universe as photographed by the James Webb Space Telescope. (In fact, Rand began the series before the photos were published.) But they are not the product of astronomers’ tools; rather, as art, they guide us instinctively through an ether where the universe intermingles with our souls, an ether only art can describe.
