Taryn Valentino
Taryn Valentino’s studio practice is rooted in the inquiry of metaphysical and philosophical subjects. Her traditional oil paintings depict scenes involving archetypal characters and motifs surrounding the subconscious mind. The use of body language and dramatic facial expressions to portray a deep emotion. The sovereignty of the individual is what she inspires to convey to her audience, a psychological concept that requires the individual to break away from the collective and embrace their individuality while integrating the parts of their psyche they have suppressed in the past.
