Known for working with text and language as symbols in various forms of art, Kristin Bauer's art takes a deeper subconscious approach to language and turns inward. Drawing from text generated from conceptual poetics of her personal dream archives and archetypal studies, the works emphasize embodied experience in their construction with water, air, bodily movement and final form.
Her large scale site specific installations, paintings and plexiglass assemblage works simultaneously capture the elements of wind and water, transmuting unconsciousness symbolism into dada-esque messaging that moves amongst surfaces of canvas, cast acrylic, nylon, parachutes and draping flag forms.
