Artist Statement

 

 

Sachi Rome is an abstract artist whose work delves into themes of open space and freedom, utilizing an alchemical approach to color through the integration of raw pigments, heritage dyes, found materials, and local clay. Her practice embodies a dynamic exploration of materiality, where each element is not only a medium but a conduit for expression and identity.

 

In her pursuit of open space, Rome creates immersive environments that invite viewers to reflect on their own perceptions of freedom and existence. The raw pigments and heritage dyes she employs are sourced with intention, echoing cultural narratives and histories that inform her work. This connection to materials fosters a dialogue between the artist’s heritage and contemporary artistic practice, allowing for a rich layering of meanings.

 

Found materials play a crucial role in her creative process, symbolizing the transformative potential of everyday objects. By repurposing these items, Rome challenges conventional notions of value and aesthetics, encouraging viewers to reconsider the familiar and the overlooked in their surroundings. This approach aligns with her exploration of open space, where boundaries are blurred and new possibilities emerge.

 

Local clay further anchors her work in the physicality of place, connecting her artistic vision to the landscape and community that shape her Southern identity. Through the tactile quality of clay, Rome engages in a dialogue with the earth, the land that is ever changing,emphasizing the importance of grounding in an increasingly abstract and technologically driven world.

 

Sachi Rome’s artistic practice is a celebration of the alchemy of color and form, inviting viewers to explore the intricate relationships between material, heritage, and the concept of freedom. Her work transcends traditional abstraction, creating spaces that resonate with  distant dreams
