TANGLES ARTIST STATEMENT

lo show TANGLES, Teresa Posyniak's love of line merges with her continuing exploration of close-up views of nature. She literally draws on her memories, imagination and everyday observations for inspiration.

The profusion of intermingling lines, colours and shapes are reminiscent of prairie grasses, wildflowers, trees, branches, twigs and leaves. This show is about reveling in the beauty of our natural surroundings, paying attention to the myriad lines, some in the form of twigs and branches etched against the sky, some more reflective of grasses and wildflowers. This joyful body of work slowly evolved during the covid years when Posyniak was trying to recover from an injury caused by a car accident in early 2020.
