A.Minor, a/k/a Alicia Minor.... 7th generation Vermonter on a mission to spread color around Planet Earth.
It's been a long strange trip that's led to becoming a live video artist....
To paraphrase John Lennon, I never expected to be a VJ, it happened while i was making other plans. Oddly, it all began with an obsession with quilting. Yes I refer to needles & thread & little scraps of fabric.... a fittingly feminine start to my artistic journey. The process of sectioning and repositioning a design to form a repeating pattern is my lifelong fascination, and integral to my design process. To quote M.C. Escher:
"Filling the plane has become a real mania to which I have become addicted and
from which I sometimes find it hard to tear myself away."
My goal in any medium remains the same: to interpret my visions of the inner realm and find the most effective way to share them.
In the late 1990's I became aware of the essentially psychedelic nature of all primitive art, through an article by Reichel-Dolmatoff on the Tukano tribe. I began incorporating ancient Mayan and Mexican elements into my work, synthesizing my hand drawn imagery with sacred geometry & fractals, & then applying my quilter's eye to deconstruct & reconstruct that work
into the kaliedoscopic visions I see when I look within.
