Catherine Brooks Exhibition Information - The Seeded Wind and Silent Motion； an Oeuvre of Beetled Beauty - @ Thinkspace

Thinkspaceでは、Stella Im Hultbergの個展に併せて二人のアーティストの展示会も同時に開催されているのでそちらも続けて紹介。

こちらはCatherine Brooksという、今回初めて知った画家。
展示会のタイトルは"The Seeded Wind and Silent Motion; An Oeuvre of Beetled Beauty"。
昆虫図鑑や植物図鑑を傍らにおいて作品を描くタイプの画家がいるけど、このCatherine Brooksもそういったタイプの画家みたい。
ブログで作品を公開しているアーティストは沢山いるが、tumblrで公開している人には初めて出合った。

Catherine Brooks
The Seeded Wind and Silent Motion; an Oeuvre of Beetled Beauty

(Bio) Catherine Brooks has been working tirelessly to expand her artist "vocabulary". Through her successes and failures, Brooks feels like she has finally learned what is important to her art, and what it is to explore during the creative process. Brooks has developed her own personal mythology, based around the legends and tales passed down and weathered through oral tradition and the rise and fall of empires. They reflect her ideas on love, memory, and the inexplicable human talent for personifying assigning responsibility to the cycles of life, and its manifestations. It was, for the artist, a beginning, a birth. It is a collection of pearls and remnants, an allusive menagerie of natural diplomacy, sensual symbiosis, and hints of great tales and legends to come.

Brooks has a BFA in Fine Arts from the Pratt Institute of Art and Design in Brooklyn, NY and completed a residency at Campus Hanoi in Vietnam. She has shown regularly in galleries over the past two years. Highlights of her resume include a solo in NYC at The Proposition Gallery in 2007 and taking part in last year’s SCOPE London.
