HIMEKA MURAI

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? HM: I make 3-dimensional, textural and abstract paintings using a technique I have developed with hot glue and paper mache. Many of these constructed abstract forms relate to relief sculpture. I use the word, “sculptural painting” […]

HEATHER DRAYZEN

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? HD: I make small intimate paintings that sit between figuration and abstraction. I render descriptive elements with varying levels of information to summon a psychological energy. Each painting is a vignette within the larger narrative of […]

ANDREA UCINI

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why?  AU: I will say minimal and apathetic. I like when the movement in the picture is not given by the action but by the idea of movement that the viewer wishes to give it. CH.89: Where […]

ANASTASIA LOPOUKHINE

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? AL: If I was a writer instead of an artist I would be most closely attributed to a Lewis Carroll, Mikhail Bulgakov, and Deborah Levy cocktail.   CH.89: Where do you draw your inspiration from? AL: One late […]

JEFF OSTERGREN

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? JO: I make work about the intertwined histories of pharmaceuticals and color. My hyper-synthetic paintings, sculptures, drawings, and videos are infused with actual pharmaceuticals and chemicals. I appropriate imagery from art history and advertising to create […]

XINYI YANG

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? XY: I would describe my work as surrealist painting which combines both figuration and abstraction. My current body of work depicts minimal landscapes in which I seek to reflect my emotions, conscious and subconscious. I would summarize […]

LYDIA ELLEN GREAVES 

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? LEG: My work is predominantly digital illustration but if I had to describe the style I guess it’s quite minimalist in terms of limiting my color palette per piece, using negative space to suggest where objects […]

LORNA ROBERTSON

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? LR: I would say I fall into the abstract and semi abstract category of oil painting. My most pure abstract work comes out when I am representing sound and rhythm visually in a painting, and for […]

LIA LIAO

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? LL: I would describe my style as rational and logical, but at the same time emotional. My experience in psychology might contribute to it since it’s a science that analyzes and sort of manipulates human feelings. […]

GUILAINE JEANPIERRE

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? GJ: For a long time, I didn’t really know how I would describe my work, but it is definitely figurative work that tends to be surrealist and dreamy. CH.89: Where do you draw your inspiration from? […]
