About the exhibition: 

Neuroplastic is a series of visionary paintings, drawings, metal prints, and animations by Austin-based artist Zoë Shulman that employ geometric abstraction to explore the intersections between psychotherapy, psychedelic medicine, and art therapy.  While undergoing cognitive behavioral therapy and clinical Ketamine treatments, the artist created these idiosyncratic artworks as transformational stepping stones on her personal healing journey through PTSD and depression.  Throughout this body of work, special hallucinatory shapes the artist calls “Ketagons” integrate ineffable thoughts and feelings into a complex visual language of soft value gradients, crystalline glazes, colorfully woven lines, fiery paint pours, rhythmic patterns, and labyrinthine illusions.  Altogether, the artist’s unique language reveals her wisdom mind’s deepest existential affirmations, self-evident truths, and spiritual transcendences.

INSIGHT: CAMIBAart Artists' Perspectives on 2020

"The Rosette of Division" by Zoë Shulman

11” x 12.75”; Digital painting and mixed media print on aluminum; 2017

$385

I'm excited to announce that my piece "The Rosette of Division" will be a part of the group show INSIGHT: 2020 at CAMIBAart Gallery!  The exhibition will be on view November 28th - December 26th, 2020.  The gallery remains open by appointment only.  Location: 6448 Hwy 290 E., Suite A102, Austin, TX 78723.

About My Piece: 

The Allegory of Good and Bad Government is a series of twenty digital painting and mixed media works printed on aluminum hexagons called rosettes. The rosettes are arranged as diptychs in which the virtues and vices of American government, expressed as elaborate geometric symbols, contrast chiaroscuros within a candle-lit gallery space. The Rosette of Division is a governmental vice that sows distrust and shatters the Union.

About the Exhibition:

Without judgement or expectation, we asked our artists to create a work of art responding to the year 2020.  

We knew the works would be exceptional in both concept and craft – we were not disappointed.  The results can be seen in this exhibition, Insight: CAMIBAart Artists’ Perspectives on 2020, which includes artworks in a wide variety of mediums by 22 artists from the US, Mexico and Cuba.  Many of the artists told us that the process was cathartic, while others found it a pleasant distraction.  Each artist has provided text describing how or why their work responds to this past year.  They address a wide range of topics including: 

the ever-present COVID19 pandemic; isolation; depression; fear; rage; loss of life; loss of connection; social distancing; classism & inherent inequality; the elections; political & social division; minorities’ & women’s rights; social justice; economic loss; environmental concerns; hope for the future; search for calmness & peace; and clarity of vision. 

Please join us in gaining some insight into a few of the ways people have experienced and responded to 2020.  Perhaps you’ll recognize some of the feelings and perhaps you’ll empathize with other’s views.

Cordovan Art School Workshops

Exciting news, I will be teaching art workshops with the Cordovan Art School!  Cordovan has locations all over central Texas and offers workshops in various art subjects.  My first workshop is "Geometric Abstraction" and I will be teaching the art of expressing ideas and emotions through lines and shapes.  In this workshop, you will explore the creation of geometric abstraction through the process of acrylic painting.  Using watercolor paper, you will design and paint geometric compositions in at least two layers that you will be able to take home after just one three-hour session.  No previous experience is required to attend — all you need is an imagination and a desire to express it!
