Sara Conca
Sea Keystones

About the Item

Abstract painting circle on wood with gallery wrap five inch sides. Rich texture and vibrant blue colors. About the artist: Sara Conca is a world renowned, American, contemporary abstract artist of French-Italian descent. Conca's work has been acquired by many collectors in Europe and the United States. Sara’s paintings can be found in private chateaus, hotel lobbies in France, and hospitals in Northern Florida. Conca's artwork are in many, exclusive, celebrity homes, collections and museums. Sara Conca recently completed a solo, permanent public art collection of 81 paintings at The University Of Tampa. Conca studied sculpture at Ateliers D’Art De St Maur Des Fosses, and further continued her education in South Florida as an assistant of the critically lauded artist Purvis Young. Her new, mystical aquatic series involves natural mixed media such as raw silver dust and 18k gold leafing, raw color pigments, mica flakes, and natural crystals. “My work is intended to instantaneously immerse the viewer into the visual and emotional energies that I have devoted to each piece. Depending on one’s ability and willingness to be guided by the senses, these paintings can lead one away from the mind and into an alternate and self-made reality filled with color and freedom. My new series features blues. I love working with this color because it changes in the light by manipulating the textures and layering with silver dust or gold; affording each piece continuous movement and energy from the reflecting and refracting light.” Established in her process and prompting a visual-emotional impression with the viewer, the medium and large scale works in this series exploit the chromatic effects of their metallics and paint. Consequently, and quite beautifully the surface of the art is so very physical. Ms. Conca arrived at this instinctual painting style through the awareness of her senses, yes: but with a significant nod to her lineage.  Sebastiano Conca (b. 1680, d. 1764), whose work is on permanent exhibition at the Louvre, The Getty and in venerable museum Collections throughout the world is no doubt a genetic influencer and it is with this provenance she has become a highly regarded artistic force.

    By Thomas Paul Raggio
    Located in New York, NY
    Abstract. Vibrant. Painting. About the Artist: "I contemplate every color, mark, and placement of the line to formulate what I call rhythmic velocities: relationships of color and motion that give life to the composition, creating a heartbeat. I am interested in the duality of math and design: through repetition, a line made of color becomes a rhythmic pattern. This concept is found when composing music, organic landscapes and architectural structures. By referencing these sources, my abstractions transcend their formal components, reaching beyond a minimalist canon. My work is composed of hard edges and thin lines set against an abstract field or a pictorial space. Each color has a quickness that is relative to the colors surrounding it; this gives my paintings visual movement and dislocates the viewer. Through linear and geometric forms, my paintings explore design and mathematical concepts found broadly throughout culture. They are improvised from a wide range of sources such as my conversations...
