Kelsey Horton

Artist Statement:
As this ink carves into paper,
As water into canyon,
As roots into soil,
As wrinkles into skin,
As experience into DNA,
Connection is both absolute and essential.

Creation of art focuses my attention to the destruction human beings are inflicting on the natural world.
I carve the expression and emotion inspired by the bits and pieces of the world I connect with onto paper. My choice of abstraction blurs the line between humans and nature. My intention is to facilitate a reconnection between all forms of life.
