Artist statement:
As an interdisciplinary conceptual artist and curator, I view my creative practice as a collection of psychedelic and post-conscious expressions. Within each concentration the aim is to immortalize moments in time. By sharing these intimate explorations, I invite viewers to connect with their own emotions, encouraging reflection, empathy, and ultimately, a shared sense of catharsis.
Artist Bio
Sapphire Servellon is a self-taught artist and curator. She began pursuing her talents at an early age after falling in love with watercolor, which eventually became the artist’s primary medium. As a product of her growth, she began to develop a conceptual series of works to immortalize and reconcile the lessons brought to her psyche. With each concept, her practice expanded. She began branching out to incorporate markers, acrylics, sculpture, and animation into her artwork. This led to a steady flow of interdisciplinary projects. While creating this series of works, the artist simultaneously turned curator. By founding a DIY gallery space in 2016 with fellow creatives and through her work with the emerging artist collective “Psych Cat” Sapphire is able to focus on getting her works and the works of her peers into more traditional gallery settings. The collective, run by Sapphire and other local creatives, focuses on artistic endeavors ranging from publishing to installations. With each exhibition or event, the team creates a new, unique experience for the community. Currently residing in Orlando, FL, Sapphire Servellon is an artist on the rise. Balancing her personal practice, curatorial endeavors, and community-based projects, the breadth of her work is ever-expanding.
