"To experience Amy Guidry’s series “In Our Veins” is to be treated to a vision, one in which a distinctly Western, distinctly American landscape, typically so stark and barren, is suddenly and surreally tenanted by a menagerie of viscera and animate remains. We find ourselves transported to a realm in which the borders between plant, animal, and man are blurred, conflated, and ultimately removed for free range, all beneath the kiln-fired colors of an immense and open sky. Yet in this desolation we find fertile ground for interpretation, each painting as rich as a dream in analytic possibility, too sharp to be real, yet too real to be forgotten."
-Paul Stinson, Managing Editor, GUTFIRE! Magazine, New York, NY
"In Our Veins" explores the connections between all life forms and the cycle of life. Through a psychological, and sometimes visceral, approach, this series investigates our relationships to each other and to the natural world, as well as our role in the life cycle. Concepts such as life and death, survival and exploitation, and the interdependence and destruction of living and nonliving organisms are illustrated throughout. Using imagery derived from dreams and free association, “In Our Veins” demonstrates these ideas in a surreal, psychologically-charged narrative.
