ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Tethers of Enlightenment was created by my obsession for books and the pursuit of knowledge. I integrated familiar techniques of my original art style as well as new sculptural techniques. Tethers of Enlightenment was created using a blue background, holographic paper, heavy gel medium, paper collage pages, joint compound, and acrylic spray med. All of the book pages were created using recycled cardboard and magazine pages. Tethers of Enlightenment was created to the same magnitude of empowerment I first experienced in this room while I imagine the untold stories of space.​

Brittany lives and works in Houston, Texas where she was born and raised. She obtained her BFA in 2021 from the Academy of Art University. Her background as a painter, photographer, and innovator inspires her multifaceted compositions. Combining painting, unconventional objects, and sculpture she creates narratives based on memories exploring adolescent youth. Her most recent art series “Home Sweet Home” documents collective experiences that resonate with memories of childhood juxtaposed with the reality of adulthood. Using hazy acrylic layers creates an illusion of ghostly images imitating the reality of memory. Somethings you remember and some things you don’t but with repetitive reflections on each memories you begin to remember hazy little details of what was forgotten. Brittany's artworks strive to stand as a reminder to enjoy moments of the present instead of chasing fleeting moments of nostalgia of the past. Brittany’s works are included in the permanent collections of the International Collage Museum. Exhibitions including The Contemporary Art Museum Houston: Contents under pressure exhibit (09), The De Young Museum: New Generations Matter Exhibit (2012), Arts Benicia: Fragments The art of collage and assemblage Exhibition (2015), Art Museum of South Texas (2020).​
