Seminary Statue 1
$110.00
Year: 2008
Medium: Hand painted photograph
Dimensions: 11×14, 1.5-inch, gallery-wrapped canvas.
While living in Washington, D.C., I heard about a dilapidated seminary in Silver Spring, MD, that was being renovated into a condo community. When I shot this photograph in 2008, one in a series of “Maiden Statues” that lined the decrepit ruins of the main seminary building, it was a creepy construction site completely overgrown by weeds. They were in rather shabby condition, but absolutely captivating to my artist’s eye! Today the statues have been completely restored on the grounds of the National Park Seminary Condo and bear almost no resemblence to the captivating creatures from my 2008 photo shoot.

Under the soil, or in the shadows is often where brilliant and beautiful things begin. The origin story of ceramics goes something like this: anthropologists believe clay’s unique properties were discovered by smearing wet clay on the inside of a basket to waterproof it, which was then placed over a fire. It became a hard and permanent stone-like shell of the initial vessel. To me, this is not unlike birds building nests, adding clay to strengthen and shape their vessels/architecture.

I love everything full of color and life! My background is in the arts, specifically studio art and art history.

My art is painted with intent, delivering pieces that I hope give the viewer the comfort of structure, along with the emotional release of abstraction.
