Rachel RubensteiN
Rachel Rubenstein's artwork explores the empowering potential of change through a combination of repeating patterns and precise mark-making. Rubenstein's art centers on the idea of transformation as a liberating force. These works are a blend of abstraction and color field techniques and they possess a powerful emotional impact. The viewer can observe the contrast between the rough, textured areas of the paintings and the smooth, consistent color & hue, creating a sense of tension on the surface.
Born in (1985) Malibu, CA, abstract painter Rachel Rubenstein attended Pepperdine University and received a BA in Art History and Organizational Communication. Her mixed media creations feature paint palette collage, painted strips of canvas, and ripped canvas that have been pulled apart and brought back to life. Rachel's work is housed in several private collections throughout the USA. She has shown her work in several shows in Los Angeles and New York City.
“I look at the canvas as a feeling being - I want the surface to go through something difficult and to see it come out the other side. It’s a gentle reminder to myself to see change, to allow for change to happen.”
