o Artist: Alette Simmons-Jimenez

o Title: Our House #2

o Year: 2018

o Medium: M/M Painting-Construction:

o Dimensions: 24 x 20 x 1 1/2 inches

o Description: My creative process involves layering, assembly, and erasure, blurring the boundaries between abstract concepts and tangible forms. I employ hybrid approaches, blending various mediums, techniques, and artistic conventions to create paintings, assemblages, and sculptures that reflect my personal experiences, memories, and dreams. My artistic practice is deeply intertwined with nature, celebrating the connections and contradictions that define our existence, highlighting the endless possibilities that occupy the space in-between. This work is composed of oil, graphite, charcoal, spray paint, cardboard, and tacks on oil-stained wood panel. Organic elements float across the visual space and attempt to find a balance as they collide with geometric shapes. I still question if I was referencing my own house and garden, or Nature itself as "our House?"
