MICHELLE CONCEPCIÓN

My work continues to explore the similarities found in natural
structures in both the microscopic and the macroscopic. This
current “Ambers” series is painted on extremely smooth paper
which is simultaneously very absorbent. Thin coats of ink are
applied with brushes, droppers, syringes, and pens. The process
is intuitive yet methodical. The paintings are a result of a
game between control and lack of control as I push and pull the
medium, manipulate it on the surface generating a never-ending
amount of the most fascinating forms and structures.
