Amanda Krantz is an Australian and Hawaiian based artist whose practice is an exploration of materials, science, food and nature, and she thinks of her multi-layered creations as organic-psychedelic in genre.
She draws inspiration from the universality of patterns found in nature. From the micro to the macro, or the way a coral reef in northern Queensland harbours the same organic patterns as fungi in the alpine tundra in Tasmania, or that is grown in our ingredients to make our most nostalgic dishes.
Her process is underpinned by a playful exploration of materials. The fluidity of paints are life-like, and my relationship with them is symbiotic. She often acts merely as a facilitator to the materials’ natural ability to create chaotic and randomly beautiful effects. And with the further use of gravity and heat, employs nature in an attempt to mimic nature. It’s a scientific process, executed organically, creating science fictional and psychedelic landscapes, quasi-alien life, and almost edible degustations.
