Anec-notes is a series of paintings and sculptural works by artist Molly Schulman, based on handwritten notes to herself. Anec-notes is a play on the word “anecdote”, as the content of each note is from Molly’s personal experience and memory, detailed in varying degrees of specificity, but not necessarily fact-based or verifiable. In excerpting her private scrawlings into a series of artworks for public consumption, the work serves as a portal from the cerebral experience of being an artist in solitude to the public realm. The work also acts as a celebration of handwriting, etymology, wordplay, and the germinating of ideas.
