“Lost Creatures from the Atomic Volcano” Artist Statement
Prepare to be entranced, dear viewer, as you venture into the colorful and hypnotic realms of “Lost Creatures from the Atomic Volcano” presented by Canal Street Art Gallery. This brain-tingling collection of abstract paintings by Mindy Fisher guides you on a journey through a mysterious world of marvelous mayhem.
What would happen if an undiscovered mega-volcano suddenly erupted, spewing uranium-poisoned lava and evaporating almost all life on earth? Without the interference of humankind and minimal traces of surviving technology, what would emerge from the radiated ashes?
Watch as Mindy imagines the astonishing possibilities with her super saturated gouache paints. A supporting cast of oil pastels, spray paint, and dye deliver surprises throughout the canvases. Abstract forms spontaneously evolve into a boundless array of plant-life and alien-like creatures battling their way into existence. Oozing scenes depicting vast, unearthly landscapes and microscopic lenses will pique your curiosity.
As you explore this new world, we encourage you to record your discoveries in the logbook. Take home a lost creature from the unearthed pile of affordable sketches or create your own at the public art-making station.
