With a simple splash of orange paint and crazy pink swirls, Elizabeth Amento’s mixed media collages will make you forget all those dull winter days. Based in San-Francisco, the artist uses a variety of mediums to create surreal and colourful scenes of the domestic life. In her artist statement, Elizabeth says that she explores the ”relationships, between people, between colors, and the play between both.” The images she finds in magazines, such as the Ladies Journal and Good Housekeeping, are ”transformed to exude energy and strength through the movement and compositions.” Each piece is created to encapsulates Elizabeth’s emotions, just like a diary of her anxieties, desires, and pleasures.
