A master weaver intersecting the past with the future, Brea Souders constructs visual analogies that expose the layered intermediaries of communication. Positing centuries-old existential questions, Souders discovers her own lexicon, creating a language built on correlation, random chance and fleeting reaction.

How we experience images now

Establishing an economy of means in image-making

Allowing other viewpoints to influence your creative decisions

Accidential observation
