Andrea Bijou
Kirkland, WA
"Land and Sea Abstracts for Inspired Spaces"
Andrea Bijou studies the effect trauma has on the psyche. Her artwork is a juxtaposition between blooming awareness and the unconscious. There is a dualistic quality dancing in her work; a coupling of opposites showcasing human darkness and healing. She uses her creative practice as a therapeutic outlet for early childhood trauma. Andrea is an advocate for abuse survivors and is working towards her Master’s in counseling.

"Layers and layers and layers. I manipulate the paint with water and gravity, then add more layers on top. I never know how the end result will turn out."
