New Image Art is pleased to present "From Inside; The Out", featuring a new series of paintings by Los Angeles based artist Stephanie Rose Guerrero. 

Artist Statement:

"Often times in my work the body and the landscape become so interconnected it is difficult to figure out where bodies start or end, whether they are landscapes or bodies to begin with.

Starting with raw canvas, I begin working from the inside out. I employ a technique that stains the images from the backside of the canvas, until it slowly seeps through to the front. Through the staining of the canvas I am confronted with the fluidity of the mark making, and the idea that both the internal and the external are intrinsically connected.  

Through my interest in creating a dialogue between the body and nature I hope to make an offering and an ode to the symbiotic relationship between the body and the natural world. When we are able to relate to something outside of ourselves, a language of vulnerability and connectivity takes place, and we become reminded of the healing and the importance of nature. Through looking outside of ourselves, we can find a connection within ourselves. From the outside, in. From inside, the out."
