Visual Art – Austin

Michelle Josey is an intermodal artist inspired by the movement of interconnectivity in nature. Combining independent and participation methods, she explores into the concepts of complexity and interrelatedness using various forms of visual art, sound art, movement, and poetic writing. Her work continues to be exhibited in galleries, shows, and site specific performances. Statement: I'm curious about nature's self-referential behavior and how it guides changes over time. I follow patterns and observe emergence. Chaos and order co-exist. The paradoxical nature of life inspires play and practice with complexity as a concept for painting and understanding my world-ing. The interconnectivity of lines and color allow me to see more possibilities of what to illuminate on the canvas, a topographic map guiding the direction of the work. The images that emerge guide the work into completion.
