Authentic Obsessions

Brianna Martray - The Exquisite Interconnectedness of All Things


Listen Later

Weather, layers, inner worlds, thick living and 10,000 folded paper cranes. Brianna’s work is driven by world-building. She’s interested in exploring possible and impossible landscapes that may or may not exist on this planet, in this dimension, in a memory, a dream, or a vision…they may never have existed anywhere — until now. Her creations convey an architectural/organic world which thrives in paradox and ambiguity; it’s a place that gives voice to so much more than can be articulated with sound or words. Each piece she creates is an earnest translation of the feelings, ideas, images, landscapes, and visions of her inner world — for Brianna, the ultimate goal of her creative life is to ardently impart to your inner world what she can from her own.

Takeaways

  1. We are all complicated nuanced onion layers of humans.
  2. We are all works in progress.
  3. The lessons are everywhere.
  4. Sharing of the art is just as important as the creating of the art.
  5. There are no mistakes in art. If you think it’s not right, it’s just not done.
  6. We are little time tornadoes creating our own weather.
