Artist Statement

Aly Louis is a contemporary abstract artist based in Northern Virginia with a background in graphic design and stationery design. Her work is a practice in intuition versus instinct, fighting the instinct to act with her logical mind and instead intuit what feels the most natural to her body. Her work weds thought, space, time, experience, movement, and emotion, creating a journey across the canvas in a way that offers a moment of connection with her audience. It often connects to the feminine body, mind, and earth in an effort to honor their respective natures.
