Mia Christopher
Mia is an American artist. I discovered her via Olivelse (thanks!) and I love her works. Expecially, because she has that sense of “full emptiness” that I like so much. You can understand what I’m saying just looking at her works, where big empty spaces are seen as colors or music.
She has a great taste in mixing colors, too, in a very simple sequence of forms full of rythm and movement. And at the same time you see these objects suspended in midair, like a symbol or something like a vision. Yes, I guess it’s like a color vision.
When she draws people, they are caught and freezed perfectly but she leaves you the opportunity to fill time and space with your immagination. They are single forms in space but at the same time you can feel their life before and after.
I find this ability to freeze and give sense of time and movement at the same time just amazing, and very rare to find.
Here, from her Flickr, her works, and I hope you’ll like them as much as I do. You can also read an interview made for Art Together on Brown Paper Bag. Her webpage is here. And you can purchase her work on Etsy or Little paper Planes. Or have you Iphone or Blackberry cover here.
