exhibition in el bruc, spain

a few of my images from our group show in el bruc, outside barcelona. there are five visual artists who have survived various dramas here at can serrat to make the time to pull this exhibition together. what’s left of us are 4 americans and one german artist, and we have cemented our bond with this final show.

  1. Beautiful work Amy. It looks like you incorporate photos and I really like the juxtapositions.

Untitled Document

the project:
to live and work in various artist residencies around the world for at least one year, exploring differing cultures, landscapes and resources.

the proposal:
how does "place" impact the creative process? by living and working in a variety of cultures, and using mostly local materials and imagery, i look to capture the essence of the environment in the artwork that i do.

the hero's journey:
my long held interest in the archetype of the hero's journey, as explored by joseph campbell, in the context of the creative process, is the overarching structure of this project. considering each stage of the sacred journey, or pilgrimage, gives me courage and insight while continually pushing off from the shore into the unknown, both physically and creatively.
