Present Moment

by Acquaetta Williams

“My visual language resides between organic and architectural form; a montage of fragments that are lyrical in movement, charged with emotions, and woven together with subliminal messages. My collages record my feelings, dreams, places and things that I love and remember. I wish to build a bridge between traditions that have been lost. And how I interpret the use of materials achieved through color, texture and scale that are often subtle and varied. Drawing from elements as diverse as vegetable papyrus, flowers, brass, copper, aluminum, gold and silver leaf, taken together, transmute to reflect polarities of struggle and transcendence.”
