"What I cannot or do not want to communicate with words, I share through painting. Each piece becomes clear to me as I am on the floor with it, in all its phases. I use my whole physical exertion which allows my paintings to be embodied states of the human condition.
I believe in the ability of art to challenge oppressive structure -- scraping and peeling back to reveal or to maintain what is buried or covered underneath and to create something entirely new.
Thriving, surviving and/or failure to do so are common undercurrents, as well as the fluidity of time and space. These are themes primary in my profession as a psychotherapist and social worker, and difficult or limiting to convey as a poet, but freeing to explore in visual form.
I work intuitively and without set intention, using movement as a vehicle. I presently achieve this with acrylic paint and associated mediums, sometimes incorporating charcoal, ink, oil and wax. I manipulate materials with steel, cloth, knives, hard plastics, wood, and physical force -- rarely using traditional tools like paintbrushes.
My paintings are both refuge and liberating space from daily constraint and emanate both my subjective and physical experience of being in the world. My poems are lyrical, wandering, imagistic and ecologically reflective of parallels between body and land." - Jennifer Leigh Harrison

The Factory Presents: Paper Planes by Amara Eke, opening next Thursday, January 9th, from 6–10 PM for Capitol Hill Art Walk!
In her first-ever solo exhibition, Amara Eke takes us on a colorful journey through five years of drawings and collages on paper. The title Paper Planes nods to both the medium and the expansive "planes of existence" these works explore, charting a timeline of the artist’s evolution—from her early experiments to her bold, glittering compositions of today.
Amara’s vibrant works blend acrylics, intricate patterns, and shimmering textures to illustrate themes of interconnectedness, time, space, and individuality. With a unique visual language and a dedication to pushing the boundaries of composition and spectacle, her art invites viewers into imaginative realms bursting with life and color.
