“becoming River”

a collection of reflections

Aubrey Pongluelert

This collection is a synthesis of new works and selected pieces, which the artist feels represents her roots, changes and growth. Comprised of several series of self-portraits that range from figurative painting to personal abstractions to symbolic drawings, the show serves as a narrative to the ever-changing process of becoming.

Aubrey uses her art making process as a means of self-reflection and inquiry. Her works in figurative painting and printing begin with sessions of self-portrait photography, from which she selects images to reimagines through different mediums. Aubrey’s work is also heavily influenced by locations, the natural environment and the spaces around her. Many of the pieces in this exhibit speak to the places and times which the artist holds as significant in the flow of her path.
