Carin Jean White is a multidisciplinary artist, working primarily in theatre and visual art. She methodically knits visual art, performance, and sound to create unique experiences: simultaneously creating individualized experiences and a communal event for audiences.
However, her goal while purely painting is to work from the gut. Carin has to be a bit sneaky to avoid fixating on a predetermined idea of what the painting “should be.” She begins by mentally conjuring up multiple unrelated images from memories or fictional vignettes. The clash of these pictures helps her to not overthink the painting. Due to the open nature of the process, the final pieces allow viewers to bring themselves to the artwork and have a type of “dialogue.”
