The Jumper, Jack, and the Railroad Tracks

The town of Uitenhage, located in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa, was founded in the early 1800s and by the 1870s it was a stop for the thousands traveling along the Port Elizabeth Mainline Railroad from Port Elizabeth to the capital city of Capetown. Working the signals at the town’s train station was a man named James Wide, better known as “Jumper”, and his assistant. The station ran smoothly until the day the two were visited by their superiors. When they saw what was going on they were completely stunned.

Metro Station Downtown

19"x23.5" oil on canvas

When I go to downtown I always get off at this station if I'm not in a hurry. The reason why I get off at this station is because somehow I feel so close to the trains, I have to cross the track in order to go to the other side then I feel the heat and smell of iron from the wheels, the train seems almost alive. This is my favorite part that when I have an eye contact with one of the conductors they usually gives me a gesture to cross the track, how personal is that! Most of the metro stations are relatively small in scale and tells you what is all about around the area with artworks. They are almost little islands in the neighborhoods. I had an idea about painting one of these stations for a long time and finally I came up with the design. Lately I enjoy painting shapes with textures instead of depicting subjects, this way I have more freedom how to go by according to my intuition. I love shapes.
