About the Item
Artist Comments
"This painting is about taking the bait and getting lost in a "box" of perceptions - a kind of falling down the rabbit hole of thinking," says Gwen. Part of an ongoing series of paintings abstractly defining the complexity and deeply layered nature of thought and memory.
About the Artist
A fascination with the division of space drives the work of Gwen Gunter. When approaching a new work, she uses both her intuition and a specific spatial vision. After creating a compositional sketch, she adds color and texture. Then she simply lets the painting guide her. Though she doesn't consider herself a huge science buff, she enjoys listening to physicists talk about quantum mechanics and string theory while she works.
