Dana Shearin

Visual language has the ability to awaken senses, engage empathy, and motivate compassion. In my most recent figurative work I am exploring the convergence between: fragility, destruction, and strength through resilience. My work has often played with themes of archeology, antiquity, and remnants. Through these themes I hope to not only place my work into the broader context of art history but to develop pieces that are both more easily understood and approachable. I have struggled as we all do at some point in time with the failures of the body. I am fascinated by the aspects of the mind that allow one to over come or cope with physical conditions. Making work helps fuel my own resilience and my hope that i becomes capable evoking resilience in others.
