“The precise role of the artist, then, is to illuminate that darkness, blaze roads through vast forests, so that we will not, in all our doing, lose sight of its purpose, which is, after all, to make the world a more human dwelling place.” – James Baldwin
Cristina MittermeierMarks of Memory
Original Mixed Media Collage
“My interest in Marks of Memory stems from what is left behind, what endures beyond the passing of a moment. For me, memory is not static, nor is it stored like documents in an archive. Rather, it is lived with and through; it changes, loses clarity, gains sharper definition, and transforms in ways we may not realize until later.” – Cristina Mittermeier

Introducing Sophie Matisse
Internationally known contemporary artist Sophie Matisse gained notoriety by creating a series of old master paintings by erasing the main figures. In her 2012 series, It’s Time, she lets go entirely of any references to art history. Exploring new imagery, even at times reorienting words, the collage like paintings are filled with calligraphy displaying photographic images of luxury brand watch faces, suggesting the continual passage of change.
