Cyd Black: Ordered Worlds


  • Chroma Projects 3rd Street Southeast Charlottesville, VA, 22902 United States (map)

Artist Statement:
Ordered Worlds is the culmination of many years of immersing myself in the fashion & interior design industry

I am drawn to fabrics and environments that are richly textured with hints of the unusual

My career as a retail owner and merchandiser of stores and restaurants as well as designing spaces for large events and private clients has served as my creative outlet for years

Previously I was a production potter in Ireland and taught ceramics in New York
lately, however I have turned to painting

Behind everything i compose whether it be a canvas , garden or a table-scape is my desire to shape & choreograph the experience…..
making it memorable and satisfying

Working abstractly with mixed media allows me the freedom to experiment with my creative process.
Inspiration is right outside my window -  my garden of many
textures, shapes, colors and light are transformed into “Ordered Worlds”on canvas.
