Another of graceann's pieces, with birds and egg!!! HOPE.
i can't seem to flip the next two, SO turn sideways to see the two photos of the ten inch square piece that i own, with small envelopes and numbers 1-6.
i was drawn to the color, and to quote her from an interview: "...the concept of synesthesia. I'll look at a color and I'll taste it- as if colors have flavors. And numbers have colors...I think for me abstract art, especially color and form, have something to do with that, because when I look at an abstract painting I can taste it or I can hear it. Edges of color, one edge of color against another, that connection, that line that they make, is heartbreaking to me sometimes. Or it's joyful. I has emotion---there's a word that I can put to it that has an emotional meaning. Rothko has always been like that to me. The edges of where a red fades off to a black---it can make me cry."
WELL, YES, ME TOO!!
I don't know why, but there are some symbols I always like to see in art, keys, bird and eggs, so I really like this piece of work!

ReplyDeleteI love Graceann Warn's work. And you are so lucky to have your very own piece. Thanks for featuring these works and pointing me to Art Propelled. Wondrous art on that site, too.

ReplyDeleteIt sounds like an amazing interview .... I've heard that for some people written words have colors .... our brains are such miraculous things
ReplyDeleteAt first I couldn't make out what the brown things with the numbers were. Then I clicked the picture and WHOA they were envelopes. HOW COOL IS THAT? :)Bea
