Danielle Krysa
Her combination of found imagery and carefully manipulated strokes of paint create a dialogue between painting and photography. Coupled with the sly jokes that are their titles, Krysa’s works speak to the artist’s interest in transforming the everyday through seemingly simple juxtapositions and wry wit. This is clear in the way the artist speaks about her practice: “I’ve always been intrigued by everyday objects and I'm even more fascinated when mundane bits and pieces are transformed into art - photos from old books, buttons, and pom poms, for example. I truly believe if we slow down long enough to open our eyes (and minds) to the world around us, inspiration can be found in everything… even old gum.”
