Gallery Exhibition- Naomi Schlinke: SWARM
Austin artist Naomi Schlinke exhibits abstract paintings and drawings.
"The intrinsic qualities of the materials themselves serve as my starting point ? how they flow or puddle, what patterns they tend to form as they dry, whether or not they contract, for example. Sometimes I begin with a mental image of an action (pouring, flinging, brushing); that action interacts with the intrinsic behaviors of the materials, creating a particular provocative visual and energetic situation. Some aspects of an image are found in a flash while others reveal themselves slowly and methodically. Ultimately, each painting represents a culmination of the deliberate and the serendipitous, the visual and the kinesthetic. Along the way I conjure images of things and not-things, forces and consequences. Evocative, unstable forms take on meaning, association and even narrative possibilities when imagination is given free rein." - from Neoteric Art, an online arts magazine.
