“Water Wish” by Audra Weaser

For the past decade, Weaser’s work has focused on nature. Weaser creates physically charged images reminiscent of watery landscapes. These abstracted scenes are formed from rhythmic manipulations of pigmented materials. Her process includes building layers of color to form intuitive, organic compositions. Through a sanding process, she navigates back into the surface. In this excavation, an image of motion and presence emerges from the once white expansion. Evoking images such as swampy bayous, mystical forests, or light shining in from gathering weather her work translates, in essence, what is unseen into a visual and poetic experience.
