Lauren Vroegindewey: Achromatic, Stream of Consciousness
Projected continuously, these flickering patterns appear overlaid and create an ephemeral textural experience. The montage is a personal landscape based on a stream of consciousness writing comparing lead white to our society’s centuries-old power structure that contemplates the unabated supremacy of white men. Achromatic is a personal response to effects this has on women.
I am a multimedia artist working in painting, printing, performance, video, installations, and sculpture based in Montclair, NJ. I teach art classes at a local studio in addition to adults with severe brain trauma. My work has been shown locally and internationally, passionate about being an art-educator practicing here and abroad.
The subject matter of my work explores notions of sustainability and vulnerability and within my practice, I attempt to blur the line between the natural and the man-made. Often working intuitively and drawing inspiration from my past and the environment around me, the work can be seen as a narrative of personal trauma and the trauma the earth feels due to the human mark. My work provides an experimental opportunity to challenge conventional perception; attempting to stimulate a mixture of sense and emotion to provoke a psychological response in the viewer that questions the choices we make daily.
