Finding Center by Alisa Free
October 1 - October 31

“Balance is the process of holding something steady during change.”
-Mindy Bacharach.
We live in unbalanced times and that makes finding calm and stability within daily living difficult. Alisa Free considers her art a metaphorical container to explore, experiment and release emotions and this helps her find the equilibrium she needs. Her work begins intuitively, then the process itself takes over to energize and inspire her work, moving back and forth from spontaneous flow to thoughtful analysis to aesthetic harmony. Recently, she’s been using these painted vessels to explore this creative process and these diverse works reflect that experimentation.
