About

Amanda Cantin’s innovative work invites you to explore art rooted in storytelling and archival, rekindling the importance of self- awareness and emotional depth through both unified and fragmented depictions of nature and the assemblage of raw, found materials.

Presented here are a collection of works inspired by nature, which serves as a profound metaphor for healing, transformation, and growth amidst the pain and escape we often seek in our socio-political landscape. Through a dream-like, painterly approach, Cantin explores the raw depths of the human condition and experience. Each piece captures fleeting moments or memories, reflecting on individual identity and emotional awareness, all while invoking the beauty and starkness of nature.

Amanda Cantin's journey of artistic exploration began after earning her bachelor’s degree, followed by a transformative period living in the mountains of California and Wyoming. There, she immersed herself in nature and collaborated with like-minded individuals, further shaping her perspective and practice.
