Bolinas-based artist Arline Mathieu brings her decades-long meditation practice into a methodical and reflective art process. She works in series, exploring a process or a subject for a period of time, often in parallel with life or world events. The selected pieces are informed by Buddhist practices and scientific observation, presenting a universe in flux, with phenomena emerging and ever-changing. Drawing inspiration from the discoveries of water on Mars and the moons of Jupiter and Saturn, these works––created in ink, watercolor, pen, and tea on paper–– explore questions of life on other planets across space and time. Mathieu's background spans textile and design at the University of Rhode Island, painting at Michigan State University, and a Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology from the New School for Social Research. Her art has been exhibited widely across West Marin, the Bay Area, and beyond.
