Art Love: Kiki Slaughter

I have featured Kiki Slaughter before.  

She is a favorite artist represented at Hidell Brooks Gallery.  

Her new work is wonderfully vibrant as part of a 3 person show on view until June 22, 2019.

i’ve battled chronic illness for the past four years.  like the healing process, my paintings have many layers. through color, texture and numerous coats of paint, i express the essence of practices that have helped me heal, including acupuncture, reiki and kundalini.  these methods and tools are my muses, and i’m excited to share them with you through my art.  i hope they speak to you as much as they have inspired me.

words aren’t my medium, paint is;  this collection is dedicated to healing.

kiki slaughter grew up in charlottesville, va and studied painting at the university of virginia.  she lives in atlanta and her studio is a 377 square foot industrial space at the goats farm arts center. she pours, scrapes, layers and otherwise manipulates paint on the canvas to create works that are rich in both color and texture. kiki is also very inspired by her visual surroundings. she strives to interpret and record her impressions of the world around her through her use of color and texture. although her works are entirely abstract, each piece maintains subtle characteristics from its source of inspiration. in 2012 she was named a southern tastemaker by garden & gun magazine.
