ARTIST STATEMENT

 
My art takes emotion and intertwine it with structure-based artworks. It revolves around rendering conceptual sculptures and pieces that reflect on complex emotions. I communicate these feelings through prints, 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional paintings, and sculptures. These are created with multiple mediums and techniques through mixed media such as screen print, oil paint, and wood. I find that through paint I am able to replicate my energetic personality and convey my intentions on a relatable level to my audience. With sculpture I design open structures with boundaries to reflect my introverted mindset and guarded emotions. ​
Through screen printing I am able to mimic the overlapping and layering methods in architecture to create different establishments that we live, gather, and socialize in. I find that my influence comes from buildings that seek to defy traditional designs. The movements I associate these ideas with are Neo- futurism and Deconstructivism. My goal is to add another layer to my viewers perspective when they walk away from my art. That is my arts true purpose.

ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

Artist, Makevia Moore is using her artwork to express the journey she’s on towards self-realization. This search has led her to experimentation with varies media such as painting and graphic design where her interest in architecture creates a visual representation of structures in her artwork as metaphors for cages, shelters, and dwellings. Moore finds her inspiration from distinctive structures with individualistic features and blueprints.  Her use of color is tied directly to her response of emotion. The artist takes ideas from installation art and uses it to recreate the space to invoke a specific emotion to her audience. Her placement of color within these spaces impacts the way the viewer reacts to her piece. While at VSU, her artwork was selected for the Valdosta Symphony Orchestra “Casual Classics” jazz concert. In the future, Moore plans on getting her master’s in architecture from Mercer University so she can be able to produce dream homes for her clients.
