About The Artist
Kim Powell is an American multidisciplinary artist known for her large-scale abstract paintings, which emerge through an intuitive and expressive creative process. Influenced by artists such as Wassily Kandinsky and Hilma af Klint, as well as the symbolic traditions of 5th-century tantric Hindu art and non-dual philosophy, her work explores the dynamic interplay of color, movement, and depth. For Powell, painting is both a spiritual practice and an exploration of consciousness, where each piece serves as a gateway to deeper awareness. Working primarily with acrylic and oil, she blends instinctual gestures with astrological insights, crafting compositions that evoke a sense of mystery and transcendence.
With a background in Buddhism, yoga, and nondualism, Powell extends her artistic perspective into the realm of evolutionary astrology, offering guidance through readings and consultations. She views art as a bridge between the physical and the metaphysical, fostering meaningful connections that go beyond the visual experience. Her multidisciplinary practice reflects a commitment to both personal and collective transformation, inviting viewers to engage with the unseen dimensions of existence through her work.
About The Work
Kim Powell’s artistic practice explores the dynamic relationship between chaos and order, intuition and structure. Influenced by Rupert Sheldrake’s theory of morphic fields - unseen forces that shape and guide living systems - her work embraces painting as an act of transformation. Through bold strokes, layered textures, and fluid movement, Powell engages in a process that is both intuitive and deliberate, allowing each piece to unfold organically. Her paintings serve as visual artifacts of thought, emotion, and memory, capturing the invisible yet deeply felt currents that shape human experience.
Powell’s approach to abstraction is rooted in a dialogue between spontaneity and refinement. She surrenders to the present moment, responding to color and gesture as they emerge, obscuring and revealing forms in a continual act of discovery. Each painting becomes more than a composition—it is a conduit for deeper connection, a reflection of the unconscious. Her work invites viewers into a realm beyond the literal, evoking a sensory and emotional resonance that dissolves the boundaries between artist, artwork, and observer.
