My studio is located in lower Manhattan, New York and I have been an exhibiting artist for over 20 years in the USA |
| About the Artist | |
"My work is based on the knowledge that tactile materials, especially those with a previous life, focus the viewer’s attention toward examining their own thoughts and feelings. |

The Loudness of Silence
2005 |
)
|
| In The Loudness of Silence there is a constant shifting or �visual dance� that occurs, coupled with the unexpected landscape, provided by the gallery itself. While it explores fear and hope, the installation has no single interpretation, but it is an opportunity for self-reflection. See video on web site:wwwjuneahrens.com |
