Crystal Neubauer

Regardless of the media I include, my work always comes down to collage. Whether rendered in a 3-dimensional assemblage fashion, or a 2-D picture plane, my fascination begins with found papers. I see these items as a metaphor for our own lives, and seek to bring them together in a way that opens the viewer to a deeper experience of an overarching theme of personal redemption – where every part of who you are is embraced and nurtured. I call my process intuitive, but it all boils down to learning to trust and open oneself to the voice inside; the one that can guide creative decisions and bring about a much richer work of art then what skilled technique alone can do.

From obtaining gallery representation, to writing a book, to teaching workshops nationwide, and opening a studio in my own neighborhood, learning to tune in to the voice within has led me on a journey of learning “I can”; and I am delighted to share what I have learned in hopes that others will achieve an “I can” experience of their own.
