Each of Garrido’s compositions has an internal gravity that develops as she works. She draws out forms that tangle, touch, and overlap; that sit, lean and lay. She pays attention to shapes that climb or melt, slither or are filled with air; shaping ridges, platforms, grooves, and soft spaces woven through the layers. No composition is planned. Each choice is influenced by the ones that came before, working shape by shape, layer by layer. The power of color and her intuitive use of shape combine to form emotive vessels that communicate an ever-changing internal and external growth- to which we all can relate.

Inspired by transitions in nature, Robinson’s work is a meditation on movement and the evolution of patterns. Her choice of paper as material references time, culture, process and tradition as well as the evolution of human technology. She uses a wide array of fibers and papermaking styles to create hundreds of individual paper units that make up each piece, coming together in representation of nature’s dynamic and intricate vastness.
Of Cuban heritage, Greenberg's color use is heavily influenced by architectural images from Havana Vieja. She is struck by their juxtaposition of color; and specifically the boldness of the color families within one building, or a series of neighboring buildings. In her more monochromatic works, Greenberg explores the feeling that subtle changes in color and light create. Natural forms, Japanese flower arranging (Ikebana), kimono embroidery and the work of Uemura Shoen are also inspirations for the artist.
