Piece description from the artist
Dragonfly was inspired by a trip to Borneo where I fell in love with the amazing light, sounds, and colors of the rainforest. Walking underneath the forest canopy with the light filtering through, birds shrieking above and the colors shifting moment to moment, it was hard not to think about how alive (yet temporary) everything was. It was a reminder of how magical and singular every moment truly is.
Cassandra Glanzmann is an americanized Swede whose dramatic and boldly colored oil paintings explore the notion of impermanence as a profoundly beautiful reminder of what it means to exist. Using sweeping, gestural brushstrokes she creates loose abstractions that melt away before your eyes. Hazy underwater seascapes, exploding sunsets, melting gardens or diffuse female forms all remind us that nothing in life can be fully grasped or held onto: everything that we see, experience and are, is in constant flux and eventually vanishes.
