Hilary Lorenz, ‘Blue Botanicals’

The series ‘Blue Botanicals’ symbolizes the enduring presence of water in my life. It comprises 30″ x 22″ one-of-a-kind hand-carved linoleum block prints created with plant stencils and indigo blue ink. The indigo blue ink symbolizes water, a vital part of life. I grew up on Lake Michigan and subsequently lived in NYC, always within a half mile of a significant body of water. I now reside in the arid desert of Northern New Mexico.

The ‘Blue Botanicals’ series visually narrates my journey, intertwining my past’s lush, watery landscapes with my present’s harsh environment. The indigo ink symbolizes the water from my previous homes as a reminder of what is possible. The botanic stencils, crafted from weeds found in the New Mexico land, symbolize the solace I find amidst the cracks in my history and memory.

About the Art

About the Process

Hilary Lorenz works with ink, paper, and wood, creating two- and three-dimensional art forms that skillfully blend traditional craftwork with contemporary art practices to explore landscapes and environments. Using trail running and backpacking, Lorenz traverses an expanse of streams, rivers, lakes, oceans, mountains, and deserts. Her work reflects the places she inhabits. Beverly Fisher's drawings are a primary investigation of composition, line and mass. Mark making is a way of thinking out of time, only present in the experience, here and now. It has its own, unstable logic and allows for intuition, the perfect blend between reason and feeling, to enter in the development of ideas and in the process of making an artistic decision. And as Richard Serra states: "The vulnerability of not knowing what you are doing is always more rewarding than knowing it."Drawing becomes another way of thinking. It's is a non-linguistic, experiential way of structuring perceived space.
