Emotions in Color
Alexandra Bertrand

In the Art Gallery December 4, 2025 until February 3, 2026.

Artist Statement

My work explores the relationship between emotion, color, and the natural world. Rooted in abstraction and inspired by nature, my paintings emerge from a deeply intuitive process. I often begin with a feeling—an emotional landscape—and allow color to guide me.

Music plays an essential role in my creative process. The rhythm and mood of a song often influence the gestures, layers, and textures I create on the canvas. I work with acrylic paint and various spatulas, experimenting with texture and form.

My aim is to evoke a sense of presence—whether it's calm, vibrant, or contemplative—inviting viewers to feel rather than interpret. Each painting is a conversation between the external world and my inner life, a reflection of what moves me, and what I hope might move others.
