Erika Bianconi

As an outsider artist Erika has learned things about art and the art world at a difference pace and perspective than those who’ve studied the canon, and technique. To make a career out of art was not a well-funded decision under the guidance of mentorship or encouragement, it was a passionate and uninformed leap of faith during one of the lowest, most desperate time of her life.

She had seen and felt how art holds this incredible power to embody anything you throw at it, with absolutely no judgments whatsoever. It's wonderfully generous in that way. And whenever you're in need of a certain feeling or a gentle nudge of memory, there it is again, with ever-lasting presence.

"The creative process is a reliable old friend. It's always there, always an option, and always ready to embrace whatever you want to express, be it your thoughts, your memories, your feelings, or even those sudden creative whims.

I’ve watched my work evolve as I have, getting smarter, more refined, and distilled as time passes by."
