Statement - 2010
Judy Gilbert

“Mergers - Similarities - Metaphors - Patterns - Entanglement”


These words came to me as an answer to my questions about the nature of my art. Looking back I can see that these words have always been there; underlying my artwork, despite the contrast of styles and materials I have used over time. My brain is always observing connections between disparate events that seem unrelated. My mind draws paralles or makes connections between words and symbols or between images and ideas, bringing them together with significance. This is the stuff of my art.

Some of the subject matter that has churned through my process includes psychology, dreams, feminism, archetypes, patterns in nature, and quantum physics.  I have worked with these ideas in both abstract and representational forms and in various media. For the last three years I have been working with encaustic exclusively. My interests lie at the intersection of science and art. The latest imagery is based on wave patterns of all kinds: gravity waves, electromagnetic waves, brain waves, chemical waves, etc.

Thank you for reviewing them. I hope you enjoy seeing my art.
