The Making of angels (2022) 미술작품 Anne-Marie Delaunay-Danizio 로

I delight in colors, and in creating organic shapes, abstract landscapes, and bright critters.

My art is a dance of trauma and celebration, in which lust for life transcends the human body, and challenges boundaries between genders, human and non-human, body and landscape.

With humor, visual puns, evocations of organisms, and of internal and external body parts, I create poetics of biology.

By staining, creating random shapes, redesigning them and erasing them, I let complex and contradictory emotions guide me through many shades of feeling.

I define my approach as drawing on canvas, using acrylic ink, paint markers, vine charcoal and graphite pencil to define shapes, along with staining and layering my canvases.

Painting was my first love in the 1970s Paris. Throughout a career that comprises experimenting with several media and long hiatuses, I only reconnected with my passion for painting after enrolling in a MFA program at the NHIA/IAD at New England College in 2018.

My artistic genealogy originates in the Abstract and Boston Expressionist movements, notably from the artworks by Arshille Gorky, Willem de Kooning, Helen Frankenthaler, and Philip Guston. I feel a strong kinship with artists of my generation who became prominent in the 1980s, especially Basquiat and Keith Harring, or have a strong presence in our early 21st century such as Sheila Peppe and Carrie Moyer.

My painting is now morphing into three-dimensional shapes and I have recently been experimenting with textile sculptures, alternating my days between my artist studio in Lowell, where I focus on painting and my home studio in Waltham where I spend my time in building, weaving shapes with wires and threads.

These studios are the spaces that allow me to generate suggestive shapes with multiple and open-ended meanings. I am in my body, a body that moves and projects movement and rhythms into the canvas, or follows the flow of creating three-dimensional objects.

Also a creative writer of fiction and non-fiction, I grapple in my artistic and writing practice with contemporary issues of gender identity, dealing with the unnamed struggles I faced as a young artist in a female body in the 1970s Paris.
