« I want my work to be intimate, purposely unsettled and imperfect, invoking association, resonance, sensuousness and metaphor to create poetic evocations of nature. »
Established American artist Barbara Hocker's was mesmerised by color and photography from a young age. The Japanese aesthetic concept of 'Wabi Sabi' is a key theme in her artworks, the notion that hope and loss always dance together and that everything is impermanent, imperfect and in constant flux is central to this dogma. Explorations of water, pattern and liminal space her mixed media artworks are emotive and textured to meditative effect.
