Zeitraum: Juni-Juli 2018
Stipendiatin der NYAA
In meiner Arbeit monumentalisiere ich die stillen Momente im Leben und kreiere durch meine Gemälde und Zeichnungen eine Allegorie zur menschlichen Erfahrung. Diese Inspiration kommt durch die Beobachtung der Natur und der Suche nach metaphorischen Erzählungen, die sich in der Umgebung des täglichen Lebens entwirren. Meine Einflüsse reichen vom nordeuropäischen Barock und den amerikanischen Realisten bis zu meiner Erinnerung an die bewaldeten Landschaften Georgiens, in denen ich aufgewachsen bin. Indem ich das, was ich weiß und sehe, male, hoffe ich zu erfassen, was es bedeutet, am Leben zu sein.
