Anne Slater
b. 1959∙ CE artist since 2005
Anne Slater is an enthusiastic and profoundly loving presence at Creativity Explored. Slater is always keen to participate in new projects, and learn new techniques – including embroidery, fashion and surface design.
Slater works in many different mediums. In the past she has created fabric sculpture and ceramic forms. Recently, her focus has been on two-dimensional work.
Abstract floral patterning dominates her exuberant and colorful use of oil pastel. A strong sense of design characterizes her figurative work as well. Layered over a vibrant, monochromatic background, sequences of linked, doll-like figures filled with vibrant washes of color cover the picture plane. Often done in marker and watercolor, on paper or wood, Slater’s palette and precise compositions are animated with the movement of dance and the tenderness shown in her connection with others.
