About Melody Postma

"I have always been fascinated with old photographs, so candid in our attempt to document the everyday and how easily these images can become icons. My work is a multi-layered evolution of vivid color, playful shapes, textural fragments and long forgotten photographic images of nonchalant figures. Each layer is a moment, a new thought, sometimes revealing of what came before and at other times hidden as the momentum continues. I like to tap into the viewers sense of self by unveiling a contectedness to a moment. While identity remains anonymous, a sensitivity to time and space takes over. As I paint in the round, I offer no beginning or ends. Simply taking you on a journey by offering snapshots of information buried along the way".
