Behind the Curtain

In partnership with Casa de Manana

In this series of four abstract works on fabric, each measuring approximately 69” by 69”, participants embraced play and let chance guide them as they explored fluidity with paint. Working collaboratively as a group, participants selected color palettes and experimented with mark-making techniques, building up splashes, splatters and other intentional marks to visually describe a specific mood or emotion. Titled after four emotional states - Anger, Harmony, Enthusiasm, and Anxiety - this body of work gestures to the power of art to uplift, soothe, provoke, or take us to a place of introspection and contemplation. Created in partnership with Casa de Manana program staff.
