Diane Williams is a master painter who uses intuitive color, bold brushwork, and monumental scale as a vehicle for the voice of the strong feminine to weave nature's story across time.
Multiple layers chronicle what is concrete and what is illusive; erasures remind us that nothing is permanent, yet everything leaves an impression. The calm, vast space of the canvas allows a story to be told through generations.
Her paintings invite the viewer to enter uncharted territory; a world where women and elders are revered as holders of our collective intuitive lineage and where listening to one's intuition is the highest form of prayer.
"Bold Silence" is a captivating exploration of contrasts within the artistic realm. Through vibrant colors, striking forms, and dynamic movements, the exhibition invites viewers into a realm of audacious expression. However, nestled amidst this boldness lie pockets of tranquil silence, providing a unique opportunity for introspection and self-discovery. As layers are gently peeled back, akin to uncovering the strata of an onion, the narrative unfurls to reveal the rich tapestry of history and memory that underpins each creation. The interplay between these elements guides observers on a journey that marries the extroverted with the introverted, the vibrant with the serene, ultimately allowing for a profound experience of contemplation and personal growth.
