| Beehive Acrylic and oil on found quilt |
Artist Statement: Colony Collapse Disorder has been a concern for some ten years now. These precious pollinators have fallen prey to sublethal stressors such as pesticides and diesel fumes, climate change, pests and contribute to bee decline and cognitive function to find and forage food. So important to our own food, this is a crisis that is near and dear to my heart, and I pray it continues to be researched and handled so as not to lose our bee population. This acrylic and oil painting on found quilt represents, the beauty of cooperation, order and sustainability. Bio: Anne Cutri has been pursuing her artistic endeavors for about 35 years. Her work has always explored the inner landscape and the unseen. Mysticism a key component and of late, prophecy, which orchestrates the symbolic and energetic interpretation of her intimate relationship to the Sacred Trinity and biblical teachings. Her preferred medium is oil on canvas, often mixing with other mediums such as collage. Cutri has shown her work from Boston to Houston and points in between. She is mostly self-taught. She is a member of Christians in the Visual Arts (CIVA) and founded United Christian Artists Revolving Exhibitions (UCARE), as well as Artists Who Evangelize (AWE), which also stands for Art Worship Encounter, an arts ministry which she co-founded at her church in Erie, PA. |
