Sheri Paisley's work explores the connection between internal and external landscapes, with a focus on breath, spirit, and wind. Through abstract and loosely rendered scenes, she examines the dynamic tension between form and formlessness, as well as the invisible forces that shape our experiences. For Paisley, painting is a way to engage more deeply with the world, using color, mark-making, and gesture to process life's complexities and connect with the flow of energy in nature.
A lot of this show is informed by Henry David Thoreau's book, Walden. I live and work in a small 360 sq/ft house with an additional 13x13 studio next to a lake, in relative isolation. Thoreau's themes of self-reliance, simplicity, and the beauty of nature, advocating for a life lived intentionally and stripped of unnecessary materialism resonates with me. This painting was made with reflections on the pages of Walden.
