Eleonora Tammes

Our guest exhibiting artist in March is Eleonora Tammes. 

She says her paintings on paper "investigate the complexities and subtleties found within pattern. To understand a pattern is to appreciate it as a finger print of pressure and the system’s state of balance. Utilizing processes of repetition, deformation and mark-making, her work records physical and emotional forcings that compete for space and influence. Like individuals forming an audience, or atoms a mineral lattice, grapevines a vineyard and bricks a wall, I build assemblages of graphical elements characterized by regular and irregular patterns. These patterns reflect my love of construction and express aspects inherent to entities composed of smaller units, such as process, purpose, function, mode, belonging, limitations and flux."
