Tamara Gonzales

Tamara Gonzales works with a variety of painted patterned motifs both in figuration and abstraction. Textiles and nature often inspire her works, while others are created through her own generative mark-making on paper or canvas. Gonzales’ global travels and her visionary experiences and friendships with members of several indigenous communities have become a source of both inspiration and collaboration in her work. Working in her studio in Brooklyn and upstate New York, Gonzales develops her own visual language, resulting in a wonderful mixture of exuberant color, energetic line, pattern, and archetypal imagery. Her most recent solo shows were held at: New York’s Klaus von Nichtssagend Gallery and Los Angeles’ The Pit Gallery.
