Beautiful works by Lorri Ott


















Artist Statement
Experimental in material and process, my work is informed by the language of painting, the history of abstraction, chemistry, color, landscape and grid. Favoring the fluidity of pigmented liquid plastic I construct physical objects that function optically as well as sculpturally, engaging both vision and touch. Using color and surface texture to differentiate the parts or elements, I combine and assemble juxtaposing materials and forms (hard/soft, organic/geometric, opaque/translucent) to further abstract the pictorial qualities of the works.

the installation consists of a parachute inflated by a wind-machine, creating an ephemere situation of interaction between states of stability and instability. the set-up serves as a methaphor of the ambiguous and discontinuous interplay of artificially produced objects and natural elements.
