Amanda Hanlon    



Gallery IMA's ongoing series of introducing new artists in gallery II, will feature new paintings, watercolors and models by 2007 University of Washington MFA graduate, Amanda Hanlon.

Amanda states: "At the core of all of my work lays an interior, or a living space, that has been derived from my history.   These rooms range from a reference to a childhood home whose details have been conjured up through found photographs, or a model of a room created from memory after visiting a new vacant house."  Amanda's paintings and watercolors bring you into unexplored corners and nooks, whether it's a staircase, hallway or skylight window. Her wall mounted, sculptural models, using acrylic, fiberboard and mirrors, are the perfect conceptual element to bring all 3 mediums together as a whole.
