Artist Statement

Exploring similarities of ephemeral internal and external forms like emotions and clouds, this painting is made with many layers of thin colour and tinted gesso where colour saturation and opacity attempts to build a felt space. Finalist for NCAA19.

About the Artist

Michelle Reid

Michelle Reid is an artist based in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland who explores atmosphere aesthetics and emotional spaces. Reid is interested in the smudging of space between locatable and lyrical references. Her current body of work draws on pattern, romanticism and modern environmentalism and uses an eclectic mix of research, intuition, and materiality, often dissolved in a composition of watercolours, oils, ink or occasionally organic fugitives.
