Artist Statement and Bio

My collage-paintings are experiments in structured improvisation, informed by post-modern movement and performance. Rather than suggest a specific narrative, I am trying to reflect the individual’s connection with universal themes of autonomy, community, culture, and place. What always interests me is the layered richness, irregular edges, and internal textures of mood.

Amy Kincaid began creating and showing artwork locally in 2003, receiving awards in mixed media, presenting in alternative spaces and galleries in the Washington metro area, including Artful Gallery, The Warehouse, Arlington Art Center, and the Corcoran School of Art’s Art Anonymous. An advisor and technical assistance provider to leaders in nonprofits and social enterprises, she also curates the alternative gallery and performance space at Kefa Café in Silver Spring. Kansas City-born and -raised, Amy lives in the Washington, DC area.
