Courtney Sams
Visual Artist
I am an Oakland California based artist. My current work utilizes the Lake Merritt bird population to explore themes of ephemerality and memory.
RECENT FOCUS
My most recent gallery showings featured works focused on the compulsion to preserve ephemeral objects as a repository of autobiographical memories.
My current works in progress focus on birds painted from memory, presented devoid of the context of their aesthetic environments.
