Meaghan Westfall - Contemporary Artist

The aim of my work is to strike a balance between my ideal world and reality. Initially, my sculptural work revolved solely around the emotions of others. Eventually, I was able to express my own feelings. I began to use concrete forms to represent time and memories, while using colored light to generate an environment that simulated my own head space. By doing this, I anchored the intangible to tangibility in an attempt to connect with the viewer through the marriage of light and material. My two dimensional work explores the same ideas through a different lens, and on a more abstract level. Solid forms are substituted by numbers and geometric forms, and the radiant light becomes planes of color.
