Xochi Solis
Xochi Solis takes the time to tell us about Austin, Texas, working with found materials, and her badass influences.
The repeated act of layering becomes a meditation on shape. Through this practice I have become more keen in my observations of these same repeated shapes and forms in nature.
About the Artist
Xochi Solis (b. 1981) is an Austin, Texas-based mixed media artist. Her works include collaged paintings that explore color, texture, and shape through paint, collected paper ephemera, hand-dyed and marbled paper, plastics, and found images from books and magazines. Through a practiced process of layering materials, incorporating the visual depth and illusions of photographic surfaces, Xochi reflects on the visual complexities in her environment, both natural and cultural. Her work communicates a nuanced narrative about time, place, and sensation while grappling with how to represent an environment where her heritage, body, and dreams for the future co-exist.
