Krisha Heckman artist statement
My work approaches different ways on how to tackle buddhist discussion of suffering . It inform on how our perception and mental formation that is that develop to handle
Society is often negligent or disastrous in seeing what the world actually is . The work expresses this sense through emptiness , or subtle sense of impermanence in its abstraction, space, spontaneously .As a form of speech is grounded in styles and line work from asian ink masters including , Fan Kuan, Tung Hsien , Wang Meng . But, life is mainly groundless and so largely based on my meditation and samadhi (concentration ) . My background is mainly Zen buddhism. So it directly focuses on simply investigating and practicing than conceptionaly concept of self . Which is funny. Art is all about self .
I myself is Kutztown graduate with a degree in. studio art . I was. born Allentown and. been living. in Philadelphia. for the past 3 years . i. formal student at the Soto Zen center and practice mediation and mindfulness.
