Shelley Thorstensen is a Pennsylvania-based printmaker. Her work is a duet between intangible and tactile, a physical representation of consciousness: a duality of body and mind, physical and mental, heart and soul. Her prints reflect personal narrative and the interplay between manmade and natural forms. She investigates color and form independently, allowing either to dominate until the piece is complete. Her art is held in major collections, including the Royal Museum of Art (Antwerp), MoMA (New York), and Woodmere Art Museum. She is represented by Dolan/Maxwell.
