Blue Spiral 1 In The Studio - Katie Walker - I Keep Going

Blue Spiral 1’s ‘In the Studio’ series highlights the work and process of our artists. In this edition we feature abstract artist Katie Walker talking about energy in the studio. “Lately I have been [focused on] expressionistic ‘map-making’ but, as personal meaning and influences evolve, I am attempting to reconcile new information and knowledge with what is known. By merging residue of the past and imagined scenarios with my daily life, I am making abstract works that reflect broader experiences of life and memory.”

she identifies that energy or excitement is maintained by way of discovery or moment. executing plans may be fun, meaningful, etc., but by its nature plans, drafts, projections remove that energy that results in dynamical processes like play, art, etc.. i liked her observation that even measuring is exciting. indicates an artist temperament. thanks, s

Why is your work huge? Why are all abstract works huge? Because they are not worth looking at so they have to scream. Vermeer never screamed because his work is in a realm of the real truth.. of beauty. He did not fear beauty.
