GRACEANN WARN   

 

I paint and I construct.  Both my paintings and assemblages use the metaphor of excavation.  My formal education
in landscape architecture and classical archaeology provides structure to artistic flights of fancy that always seem to revolve around some form of revelation: 

The attempt to unearth an object or solve a mystery. 
Uncovering/Covering.
Leaving aTrace, 
a Vestige,
a Palimpsest.

 


Palimpsest #3, 2008
