This series started in a small leather bound ledger dated 1863. Most of the book is blank but for the first few pages which are an accounting record of a tailor’s business. The handwriting is lavish, done in brown ink and pencil. I started using it as a sketchbook, doing quick ladder sketches to nail the perspective. About half way through the series I quit working out the ideas in the ledger because I realized that I wanted the full scale paintings to capture the multitude of lines that result from hammering out the point of view. The brown ink is made of ground walnut shells and I adore it for the way it maneuvers on the paper. Titles, always an important component of my work, show up as labels glued to the finished painting in a format reminiscent of eighteenth century scientific labeling. The ladders illustrate offhand, sometimes seemingly humorous remarks that couch a mordant assessment of the situation. Sometimes the ladders are solitary, at other times they congregate to form structures; some are straight, while others wend into railroads and rollercoasters. Horizon lines and exaggerated vanishing points document the sense of looking down from a great height and off into the distance.

Terrell Lozada (b. 1962) is an American painter and sculptor living in Paris. She uses imagery and language to create works that explore the metaphysics of gender and power in contemporary society. Her work represents an internal, emotional world through objects subjected to unreliable or suspended gravity. Her aesthetic fulcrum is the late 18th century, particularly as it relates to French architecture. She works in a wide variety of media including watercolor, oil on panel, cast bronze, etchings and carved wood. She is currently exploring tin-glazed terracotta (faïence stannifère) to combine color and form.
