Gretchen Kish is visual artist living and working in San Francisco, California. her work is a meditation on what is and observations of our fragile selves within a seemingly infinite universe.

Her latest work centers on her experience of the natural environment and spontaneous response, conscious and unconscious. This work explores the dynamic equilibrium of nature and natural forms, coexisting with our very fragile, very finite existence. Amidst forces, beyond our control, or even comprehension.we live and create meaning across a narrow sliver of space and time. Her work attempts to make sense of our experience with color, mass, light, form, atmosphere, abstract color fields and natural landscape inspired analogies to reflect the metaphysical reality we inhabit. Viewers of her artworks are invited to reimagine and reevaluate their experiences with the natural world and understand their place in the ecosystem.

Her work makes use of an intensely colored palette of rich hues. Her works are an investigation, observance and acceptance of the creative and destructive happenings all around us and within us.
