ANDREE VALLEY​

"My artwork is based upon perceived chaos and how that chaos is contained within an object. I am interested in randomness and layering of units in my wall pieces and the lack of orientation in works that sit on the floor or hang with swiveled wire. Inspired by music, this work reflects the shading, tempo, and interweaving of sounds. Inspired by our dynamic planet, the shape, color, pattern, piling, stacking, and tangling in the pieces reflect what we see when looking at earth forms. Viewing shape and pattern through each other, as a representation of aural and visual complexity, reveals ever-changing relationships."

RESONANCE

"The artwork is a visual exploration of sound and how different sounds are put together into a cohesive unit.  My art work has always been a response to music and its structure.  I think of music in an abstract way in that sounds are shapes and color.  Layering of shapes, negative spaces and their interweaving mimic the complication of a measure, bar, or page of music.  I remember reading a while ago on the scientific difference between an electronic sound and an analogue sound.  The difference is in its depth or sound.  Rather than one or two oscillating lines measured from an electronic string, the sound produced from a plucked or rubbed string, divorced from electronics, have signals that are complicated and messy, rendering the sound with depth and I suppose you could say an emotional quality.  Throughout my career as a visual artist, I have always tried to use this quality, in an abstract way, in my work through shape, color and their tangling and layering within the piece. Resonance describe these concepts.  The artwork abstractly mimics sound vibrations, layerings, tempo and color of music."
