• Investigations in time and motion.

    AMY FOX

  • My paintings explore depth, the space between spaces, movement and interaction. Through process of evaporation, gravity, movement, these works are an interplay with artist, materials and time, the end result capturing only the final moment of this shifting interaction.

  • ARTIST STATEMENT

    Amy Fox, an artist whose mediums include painting and printmaking, makes art that finds complexity through limitations. In her painting series One, a series painted where each painting is a painted entirely by its own pre-mixed combination of Thalo Blue/Green, takes the color to its limits.  By giving the materials space in the process, Fox discovered a range of expressive and communicative depth, from a delicate and graceful pastel stain to a punch-in-the-gut near black opaque force. The process of allowing the color to flow, merge, layer, build and interact created meditative and rich visual field evoking feelings of being in the deep sea with light passing through, in a forest, or inside the mind of a contemplative lost in a powerful meditation.  These paintings become an expression of human personhood and experience in which the inner workings of a mind grow in a similar way to those elements in nature- sometimes crisp and clear lineages, sometimes a nebula of intersecting ideas, sometimes a shrouded journey waiting to find clarity. All of these complex concepts are beautifully explored through the seeming simplicity of one color. In subsequent series, Amy expands her palette, tools and process to include conversations with other colors, interactions, and ideas, embodied in the abstract psychological environment of controlled chaos. Fox marks her interior journey of understanding nature, the mind and human experience through these accumulations of slowly moving pigments or the pigment that is adhered by force of action. With each work, the viewer is able to glimpse into the forest of Fox’s aesthetic landscape. ​
