Anne Sherwood Pundyk

Born in New York, NY / Works in Mattituck, NY

BIO

Pundyk describes her process as working from “the inside out” as she gives form to her paintings on unstretched canvas and her photographs using color, shape, and texture. She is an artist and writer based in Mattituck and Manhattan. Her interest in creating an authentic expression through her materials is reinforced by her observation of the every-changing, rural North Fork landscape. She has recently shown at The Works Museum in Newark, OH and the BrownstoneArt Gallery in Brooklyn, NY. Her work has been reviewed in artcritical, The Brooklyn Rail, Hyperallergic, ART21 Magazine, and The Washington Post.

At the center of each of my photographs is the image of a handwritten journal. The open pages of the book are framed by two consecutive borders using a progression of digital manipulations. Each one is presented against different woven surfaces with geometric designs alternately in red, yellow, pink, orange, green or black photographed under shifting, imperfect, natural light conditions. Together, the photographs create a meditative series of nested forms.
