About the Artist
Mary is a New Orleans and Connecticut based multidisciplinary artist, observer, and thinker. Through her work, she seeks understanding of her place in the world, and in relationship to others. Her artistic process mirrors a non-linear path of self actualization, questioning constructs of value, happiness, and truth in society. Mary uses art to communicate the essential need for developing identity reflective of intrinsic human value— the value of an individual as a part of humanity. Her work exists to open silenced conversations of what makes us human- what gives us purpose- what makes us feel alive. In a world neglecting the soul & the spiritual, Mary uses paint as a medium exploring the transitory nature of life and the immortal facets that belong to a picture of possibility and hope for the individual + society.
Art making is a radical act of liberation, and a survival mechanism. It is through painting that Mary is able to reconcile her inner and outer worlds, finding peace within the subconscious reckoning of the conscious ego. Her work challenges traditional ideas of beauty and abstraction.
