About the Item

It Always Works Out, Oil on Canvas Painting by Rebekah Andrade, 2024 Additional information: Medium: Oil, Acrylic and Pastel on Canvas Dimensions: 48 × 60 in (121.9 × 152.4 cm) Rebekah Andrade (Canadian, b. 1980) is an abstract painter based in Charlotte, North Carolina. She holds a BFA in Visual Arts from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouver, Canada, and a Graphic Design Certificate from Parsons School of Design in New York City, Rebekah Andrade's work explores the language of painting by way of expressionism, geometric abstraction, hard-edge painting, and pattern. Her process draws from past work, personal references, familiar forms, objects, textures, and symbols. This structured methodology is transmitted through selected colors of layered paint, collage, and mixed media techniques, always leaving traces of the process visible. Her intention with the work is to investigate and work through questions surrounding the history of representation, limits of perception, aesthetics, status, and reproduction of images, thus providing her insight and clarity into our contemporary visual culture and communicational trends. In 2019, Andrade embarked on a transformative residency at Otis College of Art in Los Angeles, further expanding her creative horizons. Her innovative work has garnered attention across international borders, with exhibitions spanning Canada, the United States, and Chile. Her work has been published in Edeltraut, The Gathered Gallery, New American Painting #144. Andrade's work was highlighted in 2018 when her work was selected for the prestigious Art with Heart auction at the AGO in Toronto, where it shared space with works by the nation's leading contemporary artists. Currently, Andrade dedicates herself full-time to her craft at her home studio, where she explores new techniques and pushes the boundaries of abstraction. Additionally, she imparts her knowledge and passion for art as a part-time drawing instructor, remotely, in the art department at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, nurturing the next generation of artistic talent. Rebekah Andrade's artistry is a testament to her boundless creativity and unwavering commitment to the transformative power of art.
