CARLA HAYDEN

My work is about light, about color, rough, and garish forms. Storytelling, using archetypes and animals to comtemplate our underlying feelings.

Look between the lines of language and the lines in the visual world. See the world as more than what is provoked at first glance. Embrace other possibilities, the possibilities of constant illumination. We must explore and rewire the endless space within us using the healing energy of imagery, light, and luminous colors.

art has a healing power.
art brings enlightenment.
art transcends all boundaries.

I always work in a series, each piece a stepping stone to the larger effect, creating a mythology in each work using symbols and most recently incorporating words.
