Description
The culmination of my graduate research and investigations is my thesis
exhibition Solace; Intimately Remembered Places. This body of paintings is a visual
representation of land, water and flora that focuses on my abstraction of nature to extract
essential elements that expresses my deep connection to a specific time and place, layered
with associated memories. By revisiting a landscape over a sustained period of time, I
developed a personal visual vocabulary to communicate the essential abstract forms of
nature and record the subtle nuances of color, light, shape, texture, positive and negative
space to evoke a particular time and place. I expanded my painting techniques through
the addition of a laser cutter. Rooted in a background of graphic design, my thesis also
incorporated and included a book form using similar strategies.
