on being Painting

hailey young (b. 1996) is a mixed-media painter based in los angeles. her abstract paintings are a visual representation of the dynamic relationship between individuality and collective consciousness, exploring the inherent tension and harmony between the two. between intuition-driven layers of mediums and techniques, she seeks to create a visual language that speaks to the interconnectedness of all things, while addressing the human condition of perceived uniqueness. her work is an invitation to examine the role we play within the context of universal oneness - as it is experienced through our conscious and subconscious relationships with ourselves, those around us and the souls who inhabit the shared space of the world with which we all reside.
