We are pleased to hold over the newest and very personal works by Washington State University Associate Professor Carrie Vielle. Slowing down. Shutting out. Taking moments for oneself, by oneself, and welcoming silence. These are all phenomena that are new to the life of Carrie Vielle.
Italians call it "dolce far niente": The sheer enjoyment of idleness. She came to understand that taking time to be still is not indulgent, but necessary for physical and emotional well-being.
For most of Vielle's adult life, she has lived acutely and inescapably 'present.' She defined her success through a state of being highly active in as much as she could, over-achieving, and constantly contributing.
" I lost my balance, and the lack of harmony in my life was not sustainable." Vielle explains. "Over the last year, I've learned that managing success must include moments of restorative detachment. Slowly but surely, I am learning to give myself permission to allow these pauses. By incorporating silence and solitude in my life, I am slowing finding my balance."
Vielle's new collection of figural works explores these restorative moments. "I hope these images of stillness, vulnerability, strength, and solitude inspire you to slow down, shut out, and take moments for yourself." Carrie Vielle
