Book Description:
|
Riis Griffen's mixed-media paintings evolve intuitively through many layers of color and texture. Art is an outlet for her irreverent inner self, the essential self from before she was taught how to act, how to be. She draws on all kinds of visceral expression, from cave paintings to outsider art to tribal masks to graffiti. Her art is born of the same primal need for expression, with themes ranging from quirky humor to vulnerability, spirituality, and otherness.
