Artist Statement

" I am a mixed media artist based in Northern California. My art blends conventional and unconventional materials into two and three dimensional works. The materials and methodology involved in my projects are as diverse as the concepts embodied in them. I relish the combination of contemporary design with the unexpected utilization of found, recycled, and/or repurposed materials.
 
In my collages I use a combination of found materials (e.g., book pages, wrapping paper, fragments of antique hardware, etc.) and acrylic paints to create mixed media works capturing daily life as subject matter in which the actual event has yet to take place or has just ended: moments frozen in time to become the memory of an event that will never take place.
 
I love challenges, experimenting with disparate media and developing new techniques and skills. Every piece begins with me playing and improvising with the material: manipulating and mutating it—discovering its properties and limitations, with each mistake being an irreplaceable component of my process.
 
For the District 8 box art project I wanted to depict moments in time, capturing daily life in the neighborhood. I used a combination of water colors, colored pencil and digital drawing to create each box." - Kerri Warner
