Firelei Báez - Artist of the Month

FIRELEI BAEZ

“I am interested in the ethics of art, and enjoy being part of the entire creative process: from the prepping of surfaces and mixing colors, to the actual painting. I’m interested in women’s work, in the handmade, in labor and craft, in introducing my body through the tactility of painting, through the process of looking at the movement/rhythm of the hand, which is different from mechanically produced marks.” – p 26, Firelei Baez, Bloodlines

Firelei Baez’s latest exhibition Trust Memory Over History is currently on view at Gallery Wendi Norris in San Francisco until March 5th, 2016
