Carrie Pollack describes her work as an investigation between the
notions of permanence and impermanence, as well as uncertainty and
contradiction. She deliberately intends her work to function “more as
conversations than as statements”. Her imagery can often appear both familiar
and unknown, spanning both abstraction and representation. She thinks of the
process of making of her work as the evidence of momentary fragments in a
constant state of transformation. These fragmented moments possessed a
mysterious complexity, revealing a different way of looking at the world around
us, becoming visual metaphors, parts of a language. She uses her work to
contemplate the complexity of the human experience.
