Chromatic Abstraction Series
This work continues my exploration of light as a compositional element. I have found light has an organic character and volume. And when it transitions, what happens to the edges? Of course, light also means color. But color can overwhelm and obscure. By keeping color to a minimum, I focus on its emotional weight, while eliminating almost all semblance of the objective world. The images, though abstract, evoke a sense of mystery, like a vague memory, or a dream.
Chiaro/Scuro Series
Chiaro/Scuro, is inspired by the Italian term for light-dark. Each work in the series is created with a minimalist palette, undulating lines, and an equal respect for both painted and negative space. She captures a luminescent gradation anew in every piece, with a long or short interval of shape, like a subway train passing through a tunnel, experiencing intermittent light and dark. At the same time, there is a levity with drips and drops of paint, as if to show the acceptance of imperfections alongside the precision of brushstrokes.
