JULIE SILER OLANDER ART
ARTIST STATEMENT
I have explored various mediums, delving into the world of representational realism and then into the evocative power of abstract. In my earlier works of representational realism, I aimed to breathe life into the subjects that captured my imagination. The interplay of light and shadow, the intricacies of human form, and the natural landscapes that envelop us served as my muse. My desire was to immortalize fleeting moments, to evoke a sense of nostalgia and evoke emotions that transcend time. However, as I embraced the power of abstract art, I discovered a new language of expression. Within the unbounded realm of abstraction, I found the freedom to unleash emotions beyond the confines of literal representation. Julie Siler Olander |
