I’m Mary Alice, but I go by my initials, M.A. – it’s just a simpler approach. I have worked in
mixed media, collage, and assemblage for about fifteen years. I have also been a jewelry maker
and photographer. Throughout my life, I have collected folk art, unique objects, and interesting
images. I was active with the Denver Art Students League for many years. I now belong to
IndyArtWerkz, a mixed media art collective here in Indiana.
My work has a narrative quality. I tell stories in images that are to be uncovered and
discovered, rewritten and reinterpreted. These stories weave atmospheric feelings and
provocative details in a juxtaposition of celestial idealogy and the mundane world, the sublime
to the ridiculous, in a creative process that thrives in the present moment.
At times, my work references my more than twenty year practice of Tibetan Buddhism. This
practice supports my world-view and personal philosophies. I think my chosen media are
special because they free me to be courageous, gritty and experimental – the things I have
always wanted for my life.
