Rita Deanin Abbey, Carnival Forms, 1956

I am in search of my nature and the nature of materials, and the world around me. This actualizes in unseen patterns. Images emerge from an intuitive source, express through my creative process, reflect a close connection to forms and processes in nature. Arrangements of space, forms, and rhythms are archetypically familiar because their roots are in nature.
