Exactly Not It Interdisciplinary amandashaedelaplane@gmail.com www.amandadelaplane.com

For as long as I can remember, I have seen the world from two perspectives. The first, as a whole and coherent system. The second, as a series of unique moments or memories, each individually complex and worthy of attention. I use drawing and painting to deconstruct, analyze, and reassemble what I know of these perspectives. In the smaller work, color is present and there is a sense of personal experience, yet it remains unrefined, much like a memory. In the largest work, I have used the individual moments as a basis from which to construct something new. My memories – and the visual and emotional ele- ments associated with them – are used to expand the process of looking and understanding, but are not invalidated as a part of the whole. It is exactly what it was, now something new.

It is exactly not it.
