VISITING AGGIE ZED






Three things I like about Artist Aggie Zed, after visiting with her in her studio space last evening.

1.  Humored Elegance 
Zed's dripping drawings and airy sculptures are lovely without taking themselves very seriously, which is pretty lovely.

2. Embracing quirky materials.
I dig how Zed had an almost superstitious irreverence for her materials, her 'Sloppy brushes' and 'all wrong paper' lent personality to her work. 

3. Hard work without pretentiousness.
Zed described herself as 'a machine', working full days at art the way others do at retail, or in an office. Still she was remarkably without airs. She was just doing her thing. 


Thanks to Amie Oliver for facilitating this lovely evening.
