The art of Meredith Dittmar may not be completely new to our readers - we recently interviewed her for Polymer Week Magazine.
The artist has a background in engineering, computer science and sociology, but she embarked on the career of a full-time artist about ten years ago. Today we would like to introduce her recent collection titled The Texture of Awareness.
Meredith has been working with various materials, such as paper or steel. Polymer clay, however, has remained her native medium of expression and she works with it freely to explore the present moment. She defines her visual language as arising from “a practice of sketching her feelings and sensations and shifting/playing with the location and borders of perception”.
In her images, animations, installations and wall pieces Meredith works with complex composition and repetition of elements to create volume and rich texture, claiming to “bend the same element in multiple ways the same as our mind bends a singular infinite awareness into separate objects”.
Her often monochromatic pieces certainly deserve thorough examination on the part of the viewer as there is so much to perceive and discover. If you’d like to see for yourself, visit Meredith’s Instagram account. In our opinion, it’s absolutely worth your time!
