Artist Statement: My work is deeply rooted in a visual awareness of the physical world, but is rarely made directly from life. I use the subject of landscape as a point of departure rather than one of arrival. Each painting begins with inspiration collected from sketches, photographs, sentiments, memories, or emotional experiences. Visual references may be used in the initial stages of the painting process but are eventually set aside to allow the painting to evolve on its own without a mandated conclusion. Paintings may be reminiscent of a specific place; however, through an exaggeration of gesture, and manipulation of color and space, my artwork favors the emotional experience of the painting over visual realism. My paintings are an invitation to explore our tendency as humans to want to name and be certain of anything and everything. We want to know we are right. We want to know we are going to be okay. We want resolutions, absolutes, security. Within all the uncertainty cast upon us is the very nature and beauty of life itself.
Artist Bio: Lindsey Tucker Gutierrez (b. 1990) is an artist based in Wiesbaden, Germany. Gutierrez received her BFA in 2017 from Georgia State University. Through an exaggeration of gesture and manipulation of color and space, she uses the subject of landscapes as a point of departure rather than one of arrival. Gutierrez’s abstract landscapes favor emotional truth over visual realism and are an invitation to challenge our ways of understanding certainty and absolutes.

Her work lives in private collections throughout North America, Europe, and Australia.
