Riparian

Dykins_Riparian_gallery-viewThe word riparian describes a zone that functions as an interface between land and water; here it also suggests a kind of spiritual transmutation made possible through the contemplation of the beautiful or the sublime, found both in nature and in art.

In some instances her abstracted landscape views take the form of aerial images, which alternatively reflect topographical mapping of real geography and the possibilities of serenity and promise, while also suggesting the potential for self-definition and spiritual growth. Dykins’ abstract mappings explore the artistic process as both an action that belongs to itself and as a powerful descriptor of water lapping up against earth and earth jutting out into water.
