Sophia Oslin
ARTIST STATEMENT
Sophia is a multidisciplinary artist exploring luminance and ambiguity. She finds enjoyment in developing work that has the ability to hold multiple interpretations and that allows the viewer to craft their own reflective narrative and emotions from viewing the work.
Sophia’s preferred mediums include textiles and printmaking. As a Chilean-American artist, Sophia reflects upon her ancestors’ crafts in science, tailoring, upholstery, and fine art. Using a variety of processes establishes a sense of self expression that pays homage to her roots.
In her works, Sophia includes medical imaging, the natural world, self-portraiture, and mirrored compositions — inviting practice of self-reflection and shadow work. Making is meditative and a vital element to Sophia’s understanding of the human experience.
