Sobre el Artista

Patterns and flow. It is common for artists to express themselves through different reactions to pattern, shape, and color. Sandra Perlow thinks about surfaces when she walks. She takes note of passing traffic in relation to her own personal space as she considers her next move. As she walks, responses to pattern and color emerge. When she travels over a surface that becomes a challenge, she knows that the key is not to over-think it but to relax. This movement process is relevant to her studio practice, which utilizes combinations of woodcut, monoprint, collage and acrylic media that are worked into a paper or canvas surface. As on the busy city streets, the studio is a place where Perlow slows down so she can work over the surfaces she builds and add embellishment gleaned from her experiences in the world.
