Artist Statement:
Artist, actress, photographer,
Kathryn Gerhardt finds her
work influenced by the beauty
of the soul in the act of
creation.
After several trips to
Ireland, Kathryn was inspired
by the sacred mound of
Newgrange in County Meath,
which is a megalithic monument
made of intricately carved
stones, built to the sunrise
of the Winter Solstice, which
illuminates its darkened
chamber on that day to signal
the sun is returning. Her
paintings on black canvas
represents the light coming
out of the darkness, the hope
the ancients had when the sun
returned.
"The energy given off by the
stones in County Meath and
their carved spirals, circles
and diamonds resonates deeply
in me. My designs are based on
these carvings. Many experts
and archeologists have tried
to decipher what has been
skillfully carved into the
stones, but I find, the more I
look at them and work with
them, their meanings flow and
change -- They become rivers
and people, angels and stars.
My hope is that my work
captures just some of the
light and energy given off by
these sites and that whoever
looks at them will take a
little of that light energy
with them."
