Artists's Description:
Kotler is interested in visual and sensory perception and the possibilities that occur when one attends to the present moment. Using luminosity and the resonance of color, she creates reductive objects and wall-based installations that engage the viewer though subtle value shifts, chromatic complexity, and compositional movement.
While she works in a range of media, the common thread connecting them is light. Combining translucent materials, layering techniques, and color science, she creates reductive fields that amplify form, light, and geometry; spaces in which it is possible to see and penetrate. The results are experiential surfaces that shift with changing perspectives, lighting conditions, and architectural elements. The work stems from a long-standing interest in the phenomena of light and color, as approached through Buddhist philosophy and meditation. Color has the power to evoke internal sensations through perception, vibration, and cultural associations. Quieting the mind encourages these experiences to come forth. Much like standing before a vast ocean or flowing river, where water offers a sense of perspective, expansiveness, and serenity; so too these pieces serve as spaces for reflection. They do not assert a point of view; rather they are invitations to explore one's internal, perceptive experience.
