We Love Erin Burns

We love the work of Erin Burns. Here’s a little about Erin…
“I began this latest series by photographing the environs of my new surroundings, including images of spring buds and alien foliage in an unfamiliar landscape. I am interested in catching quiet moments of natural beauty which i then subjugate with mark making. Creating moments in time that reflect a melancholic attachment to the organic world, I investigate the formal qualities of painting utilising a process of layering various mediums. A process that is both additive and subtractive develops into an exploration of the relationships created through the juxtaposition of shapes. Intuitive responses to the images with paint, marker, bleach, heat, and resin occur in the instance; the moment of making inspired by what is on the mind, letting go, rebirth, love and loss, and isolation – all subjects that have arised from moving across the pond. The titles for this series predominately come from music listened to while working and literary influences. Hope you enjoy.”
