Isabella Innis
Isabella Innis is a contemporary abstract painter whose work merges raw emotional expression with precise compositional intent. Her textured brushstrokes, marbled pools of paint, and faceless, hollow forms evoke the complexities of human relationships and societal dynamics. Drawing inspiration from her upbringing across Nashville, Oxford, and Colorado Springs, as well as her travels to Uganda, Innis weaves personal and global narratives into her art. Her layered technique, combining oil stick, charcoal, and acrylic, creates works that are both aesthetically raw and emotionally potent.
Innis challenges conventional artistic narratives by embracing the unfinished and unplanned, balancing abstraction with narrative. Her figurative abstractions invite viewers to interpret the work through their lens, navigating themes of memory, identity, and human experience. Now based in Los Angeles, Innis continues to explore globalization, socioeconomic disparities, and loss, presenting a deeply resonant vision of the modern world.
