The Work
Life presents chaotic challenges that cannot be conquered, but solved only by arranging priorities…by a “balancing act”.
A smooth acrylic figure balances precariously upon a chaotic assemblage of wooden shapes. A wood orb and reflective gazing balls speak to a lack of reflection before, and illumination and order after.
Extruded pale blue acrylic, random natural wood shapes, a wood orb and gazing balls.
The Artist
Mary Ann Schindler lives in Easton, Maryland, and pursued a career in commercial illustration, art direction and design. She continues to investigate new ideas through experimental workshops and academic studies, and her forms of expression include painting, sculpture, assemblage and installation. She is drawn to combining disparate objects to hopefully illuminate ideas of understanding, empathy, and respect for the other.
