Tracy Pennington, Reaching Out
Glass mosaic on an old laptop, 15 x 19 in., 2020
Using color, texture, and pattern, I explore my inner world with tiny pieces of glass and tile, letting abstractions take form through feeling and intuition. My work emerges with personality, sometimes fun and lighthearted, sometimes soulful and unique, sometimes heavy and dark. Sometimes I am surprised by what takes shape, even though it was created by my own hands. Reaching Out was borne of reflections on my connecting with people in this virtual and viral world.
