Artist In ResidenceArtist Statement
Nome EdonnaLink to artist's own website: www.NomeEdonna.com Photos of this artist's work. See the Channel 20 news report about Nome Edonna and Sudhu Tewari from January 24, 2007. Watch a video by Mark Gunnion of our art exhibit for Sudhu Tewari and Nome Edonna in January 2007. Art is the result of satisfying a constant inner compulsion to create. My work is a personal (and at times universal) translation of contemporary urban life in San Francisco, U.S.A. I tend to alternate between up-front, in-your-face social/political statements and more obscure interpretations of our present condition, which leave the viewer in charge of connecting the dots. Through regular use of discarded materials, in my work I attempt to not only recycle but also make a comment on our rampant "throw-away" society. In the end my hope is to create a portal for the viewer bridging the gap between "what now is" and "what possibly can be"!
