Teresa Baker (she/her)
5
Teresa Baker creates paintings by placing yarn, buckskin, and other materials on top of large swaths of synthetic turf. She was drawn to the material because it suggests the land and the space between natural and artificial. She makes the abstract compositions intuitively, drawing inspiration from sources ranging from textured yarn to expansive landscapes.
Teresa Baker crea pinturas colocando hilo, gamuza y otros materiales sobre grandes franjas de pasto artificial. Se sintió atraída a este material porque le recuerda a la tierra y al espacio entre lo natural y lo artificial. Realiza sus composiciones abstractas intuitivamente, inspirándose en fuentes diversas, desde hilos texturizados hasta paisajes expansivos.
