The philosophy behind her grids—ritual, repetition, & quiet beauty
- Art as Meditation: Her grids were not about precision but presence—each line an act of quiet devotion.
-
Ritual & Repetition: She painted in structured, rhythmic gestures. Eventually she wore a daily uniform—Bibb coveralls either with a long or short-sleeved insulated t-shirt.
-
Beauty in Subtlety: Faint lines, soft washes, and near-invisible variations invite slow looking and deep attention.
-
Less as More: She saw simplicity as a way to access purity of feeling, stripping away excess to reveal essence.
-
A Quiet Rebellion: In a world that glorifies noise and complexity, she turned toward stillness, spaciousness, and restraint.
-
Imperfection & Humanity: Though they appear precise, her grids are subtly hand-drawn, embracing the organic and the human.
-
On Meaning: She rejected narrative, saying her work was not about anything—only about experiencing calm and joy.
