Heather Day In The Studio
>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=qRcDHRJQ4IA
Day travels seeking stories of all kinds—stories behind people, places, sound, and nature—and brings them home to her San Francisco studio to create an interpretation. Each of us sees the world differently through a screen of personal experiences. Day chooses to communicate interpretations through layers of overlapping paint, expressing moments at every seam, edge, and line. Each mark represents a language of dynamic motion, allowing compositions to read like handwriting—from one side to another. • Working primarily with paint and non-traditional materials, recent work is a reflection of travels in nature. Heather Day spends time collecting moments from wooded areas, agitated rivers, and panoramic views of the ocean and convey them through medium washes and emphatic marks. Color is used like punctuation—as a means to control the energy and direct the eye. The process demands motion, requiring the entire body, not just the hand. She's pouring and manipulating paint into its own current, using a range of motions. Each painting ultimately seeks to balance the progression of growth and upkeep found in both nature and the act of painting. • Learn more about the artist at: • http://www.heatherdayart.com • / heatherday • Credits • Art and Direction by Heather Day • Film by Vanessa Mona Hellmann • Sound by Decibels and Whistles
