Sounds of Color
By artist Aida Bretteri
On view: May 2 – 30
Opening: Sat, May 9 | 3-5pm
Artist Statement:
Color is a human experience and goes beyond what the eye can see. It connects directly to what the soul sees. When the soul sees, it deeply feels the beauty before it. Color is a perceived reality. It has rhythm and wavelength. It can be harmonious or discordant. It has a voice. It changes desire and emotion like a musical composition. I work mindfully and abstractly, with line and color boldness, using gouache, watercolor and acrylic to reveal another journey of modern color application
I have exhibited in numerous regional, national and international juried shows throughout the US and Tri-State area of NY, NJ and PA. In 2024, I exhibited in a juried National Works on Paper exhibition held at Long Beach Island Foundation of Art and Science, as well as the WASH-H 47th International Watermedia Exhibition held in Houston, Texas, receiving a merit award. In September of 2025, I took part in an artist’s residency located in Beaumont de Pertuis, in Provence.
