Historical Context:
Local Grand Rapids artist Cathy Pilling Marashi works within a visual language that spans science, mathematics and geometry. Marashi approaches the paint and surface of a canvas as physical truths. What you see is what you get, even if the resulting painting might suggest different things to different viewers. No single specific interpretation is needed, other than the fact that the truth of the canvas and the truth of the artists’ materials remains vital and constant.
