THE WORKS OF CONTEMPORARY & ANCIENT ARTISTS
Works that explore how memories live on in materials…whether crafted by Artisans, storytellers of long ago or by todays painters and jewelers who highlight their experiences and create visual stories. Carl Jung stated that “in addition to our immediate consciousness, which is of a thoroughly personal nature…there exists a second system of a collective, universal and impersonal nature which is identical in all individuals”. The collective subconscious.
Here the abstract works in “Timeless Remnants” combine elements of each artist’s individual experience of life, colored with her unique life events, personalities and cultural heritage. Our ancient ethnographic artworks are from a variety of countries and ethnicities while our contemporary artists are all from the Northwest. The combination aims to elicit universal emotional responses through techniques of script, mark making, composition, palette, texture, layering and energy in the artworks.
An artists vision turns complex visuals into abstract creations in their personal style to show how they see their world. The “Timeless Remnants” of their Experiences.
Our collaboration between contemporary abstract artworks and our curated collections from the past is an inspiration for a first time buyer as well as long time collectors, trend setters and the adventurous.
