Charmagne Vasquez

Charmagne Vasquez is an artist of contemporary paintings, drawings, and sculptures. Her current works often focus on interconnectedness and humankind’s role within earth’s dynamic biology. The artworks are made spontaneously, ecstatically with traditional and non-traditional media. Vasquez builds up complex, colorful layers, organic landscapes and menageries of emerging forms. The tension of daily human existence grapples with a deeper need to live more harmoniously within the collective web of life. Urban and feral. Civilization and hinterlands. Vasquez’s canvases pay homage to sacred Mother Earth, realigning our collective energy and honoring indigenous, ancestral ties. She evokes reverence and playfulness for the viewer to engage. Vasquez has been internationally, published and exhibited. She is represented by Bobby Beals Presents in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her process cross pollinates in several directions; this has included intermedia projects, research partnerships, free verse poetry and songwriting. She enjoys working on site during travels and in her Phoenix, AZ studio. More at charmagnevasquez.com.
