Maria Lindseth
Bio-
A kaleidoscope human, born in the USSR, grew up in Prague and residing in the US since 2005, I've had formal art education as a youngster but swayed away to freedom of my own art soul. An enthusiastic artiscientist with solid background in diverse fields, I enjoy challenges and a fast paced environment. I've received BS in Microbiology from Arizona State University and worked as a scientist before returning to art full time. I've always regarded art as this absolute freedom and joy. Similar to that feeling when you are Skipping and catching wind on your face. My goal is to bring that feeling to viewers through my work. To achieve the goal, I use acrylics and mixed media with a variety of application methods including palette knives, household objects and palmar action. My abstract work is centered on diversity and beauty of People and Nature, and the complexity in human souls. The elements of exploration and discovery in my often vibrant and dynamic work facilitate connection and exploration in viewers.
Under Pressure: The Print Exhibition
Under Pressure: The Print Exhibition
June 30 - July 27
VAE sought artists to submit works that had been created through any and all of the printmaking processes that utilize pressure. Pressing ink into paper has served as a catalyst for reproducing ideas in both in text and image throughout history and VAE wants to show how artists are using these techniques today.
