Anne Bernard-Pattis
Artwork is transformational. It provides exploration, adventure, and fellowship.
My personal narrative drives my artwork. It documents my social, visual, and personal landscape. My choices are impulsive and emotion based.
I work with clay, paper and textiles. Techniques and themes cross pollinate and migrate seamlessly from one medium to the other. Each of them is a joy.
I witness the events of daily life. They blend into each other their elusive moments, colors, patterns, memories and relationships. Tenuous items, they can be favored and cherished. With each technique I celebrate seemingly unremarkable moments.
My inspiration comes from my engagement with my surroundings and my enjoyment of what it brings into view.
