Conceptual Arts Strategies- Artist Profile #3: Swoon


Swoon street art at 24th and Mission, San Francisco.

Swoon in from Brooklyn.  She's famous for her wheat pasted lino-cuts and papel-picado cut outs. The subject is mostly women and children and people she encounters in the world.Her world is about the celebration of love and friendship displayed by everyday people. She's skilled with a lino knife but her installations and sculptures are my favorites. She creates structures from string, scraps of fabric, beads, rope and paper. Her style and attention to detail make a much sought after artist all over the world. She displayed in San Francisco earlier 2016 at Chandran Gallery.
