Arika von Edler



Sobre el Artista


Born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island. Arika has situated herself within art history’s portrait painting tradition. With a strong focus on raw intimacy, she seeks to narrate the small yet significantly honest moments in life. By exposing the haunting beauty of her subjects, she reveals her unfiltered embracement of the flawed within the canvas. This is apparent not only in Arika’s subject matter, but also in the bold color usage and strong brushwork. The way she pushes paint across the canvas exhibits her search for the intimate unraveling.
