Sally Dion

MFA ’21 Fine Arts Low-Residency

I work with traditional techniques using unconventional materials. My work is about family and the effect of our culture on family. The disintegration and acknowledgement of this fragmentation of our family structure can be narrated by my drawings. My work, seen from a distance, can be ethereal, but on closer inspection many images appear, asking questions and developing relationships between the images and the viewer.  Many of the lines are by tiny bottles of ink that create an ant hill hierarchy that compels the viewer to further question what they are
