Genesis Tramaine's work is an impressive unveiling of the eye's inner visions and unrealized understandings. Unorthodox and uninhibited, it is simultaneously a societal dissection and a self-revelatory journey.
Equally about the process and the finished piece, Ms. Tramaine's faces are layer upon layer of real moments and imagined metaphors. She explores ethics and insanity, the mundane and the inhumane, spirituality, sexuality, and sentimentality. She digests the everyday and regurgitates it as work that evokes déjà vu, beckoning memories of past lives and glimpses of undiscovered futures.
Genesis employs raw canvas, mixed media, found objects, and daily treasures to disrupt the binaries of organic and synthetic, created and found, new and old. Her strokes unmask southern comforts and urban Brooklyn battles. Her youth, her yearnings, and her surroundings are her influences.
Genesis Tramaine paints to capture the essence of the characters from her encounters and to breathe life into the creations of her vast imagination. She paints to speak when there are no words - for her wisdom, her politics, her faith, her findings.
