About Rebecca Schultz
Rebecca Schultz creates mixed media works–including paintings, prints, installations, and public art–that cultivate a sense of wonder for the complex ecosystems surrounding us and reflect on humanity’s precarious relationship with the more-than-human world. Rebecca’s work deconstructs patterns and forms found in nature through an intuitive witnessing and an eidetic image-making that situates itself in the liminal space between abstraction and representation. She frequently incorporates visual data, such as maps and microscopic images, as well as found and foraged materials, into her work. Rebecca’s process is informed by research; developed in collaboration with community leaders, educators, and scientists; and grounded in contemplative practice. Her public art centers community engagement and often directly incorporates community stories and artwork.
