EVE TEITELBAUM REED
EVE's (ET) dynamic is the voluptuous turmoil between light and dark
An exotic black rose, a reflection of creation. .
Large rivers of color connect and reform in a tactile perpendicular angle to life.
Connecting Earth, Time, Space, Language and Culture As the ocean connects the Sky and Sand.
An expressive fascination with the immaterial made material.
The relationship of the intuitive and the actual flow and interconnect in her work.
It is at once bold and mysterious, figurative and metaphysical.
Exploding from the subconscious yet grounded in the real.
The qualities of light and texture, translucency and solidity are apparent in her works.
Light as seen through a painting, diaphanous, the ephemeral overlay of incident fragility.
Sculptural elements...mass, object and tone.
Hands that lift paint, and move and dance with the color.
The physical act of painting, engaging both body and psyche .
Till as through an ever shifting veil
Luminescent
Bold strokes in strong times
Creating the Self, yet anew
With strength movement and energy
To answer the big question
What is the meaning of life?
TIME and ART
ART being the ability to transcend TIME
Is but another doorway to our dreams.
Eve Teitelbaum Reed
Born: 1954, Metropolitan Area
Painting and writing have been an assemblage
A means of creating for the tribe, from the
first paintings in blood and ash on the cave walls of Lascaux.
Both are integral to the advancement of man through the
subconscious projection becoming the physical projection.
A way of recording... an era ...a sense...the currents of history.
Art is a passion worlds apart from what man's daily life suggests.
Through universal concepts we approach the eternal
Through our psyche we manifest the relationships of
Earth, Time, Space, Language, and Culture that exists in
Temporal time, yet alludes to the Mysterious.
A rational man always asks why!...
Often there is no answer.
Art, by its sublime approach to the Eternal
Seeks to dance with those questions.
