"These shapes reflect the unreliable nature of memory, as small tidbits are remembered and discarded over time," says Gwen. Part of an ongoing series of paintings abstractly defining the complexity and deeply layered nature of 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.
