Sandy Gellis is one of the pioneer women artists to utilize water, earth, air, and light as her palette. She investigates the indispensable primary elements of life by transforming the mysterious “unseen” to the germinating “seen.” This poetic process often involves collaborating with people from all over the world who contribute specimens and life stories to her projects and add a human element to the metallurgic mix. For Gellis, the chemistry between people and basic mineral elements becomes a level of scrutiny and experimental research that harvests the shock of the wondrous.
