Artist's Statement:
Connected through Color: Parts of a whole is a body of work that examines two concepts at the same time: how color can be utilized in different art mediums and how compositions can take on different appearances when they are placed along side other pieces in a series with iterations and variations.
Connected through color examines color and reapplies it through different art mediums such as animation, digital illustration, and collage. Connected through color functions as an experimental project for Kimble-Ray and is her first solo exhibition. A recurring theme in her work is the concept of using technology to create artwork. She does this by using the digital software Adobe Illustrator for animations and digital illustration and using a Cricut cut machine to get out shapes for collages.
