taide on tunteen jälki...
Stacks Image 193
Bridget Allaire is an American-born artist who has lived and and worked in Finland for over 30 years. Oil painting and works in charcoal and ink make up the majority of her work and many of her paintings refer to natural phenomena. Bridget Allaire also is an accomplished orchestral musician and enjoys creating collaborative art projects with musicians and ensembles.

"The artist Bridget Allaire asserts and yet at the same time circumvents something while she works, shuttling within a symbiosis of different art forms. Musicality melts into the painting, sounds thrive within the image. The paintings, with their rhythmically sure and uninhibited emotional reflections, are demanding. The lines and colors don't follow their normal paths, but rather roam as primal forces, revealing a gateway into form. It gives us a glance of our own humanity, a landscape, or perhaps an abstract world."
