Power - International digital exhibition catalog
In this exhibition, we seek to explore what Power is. Is it a physical meaning, or is strength something internal? Does being strong mean having an advantage over someone and being the first, or is it about willpower when a person has almighty patience and goes step by step to his goal? Does power have gender, man’s superiority over nature, or do time and age affect power? Everyone has their own truth. Let’s think about the meaning of power and show our own vision in this exhibition!

About artwork<br />
Becoming a mother gave me the greatest amount of power I have known in this life. I<br />
felt power in my body for what it had achieved by developing, giving birth to and nourishing<br />
another human, all without my direct control or planning. For so much of my life<br />
I struggled with my relationship to my own personal power, and by simply allowing my<br />
body to do what it innately knew how to do, I finally felt the most at ease with myself<br />
and the most full of my own power as a woman and as a person.<br />
Artist Statement<br />
In my paintings I seek to explore our connection to nature and to each other. Specifically,<br />
I am interested in the powerful undercurrent of the divine feminine and how this<br />
force presents itself within us and our society. My most recent series of works, large<br />
scale acrylic on canvas paintings done with bright, luminous colors, is a reflection of<br />
my first year as a mother to my son Jack through which I am seeking to understand my<br />
relationship to joy, isolation, expectation and fulfillment.<br />
