Reconciliation

This piece represents the coming together of two separate perspectives, depicted by individual neurons, moving towards each other in the hopes of resolve. As can often be the case in pursuing true reconciliation communication may get worse before it gets better, but if the two parties persist through the storm of it, true resolution is possible on the other side and can bring about an intertwining and strengthening of relationship.

 

 

 

About the Neuron Series

My expressive paintings on neuron-centric subject matter advocate for communities in the realms of rare disease, neuroscience, and mental health. The content originated with my daughter’s rare genetic disorder. I became intrigued by the complexity and beauty of the human brain, inspired by the hope of its ability to re-circuit around inflicted damage.

I bring expressionistic, experiential fine art to the scientific community, yet incorporate scientific research and structure into the world of artistic expression. While the genre of digital neuro imaging is emerging, my unique approach weaves this ground-breaking content with human experience, creativity and painterly tradition - supporting fine art’s foothold amidst the growing influence of technology. My imagery intentionally blurs the lines of the abstract and physiological - recognizable as neurons to those with a trained eye but inclusive to all who are curious.
