Tammi is a Contemporary Mixed Media Artist…
Being deeply connected to her indigenous roots and childhood spent in Minnesota, Tammi is inspired by nature, symbology, spiritualism and a rich history of storytelling. She is a self-taught artist utilizing a variety of materials/mediums to create distinctly bold artworks. Tammi creates what she calls “mindfulness art” which encourages a peaceful feeling to promote tranquility, encourage self-awareness, and offer relief from daily stresses. Her work invites viewers to “stop, reflect and breathe”.
She works to produce her interpretation of mindfulness through daring lines and the inclusion of sculpted elements into her work. Tammi’s techniques can be compared to a blending of sculpture and painting through her skilled use of texture and manipulation of mediums. Through an intensive process which often lasts weeks, she uses a diverse variety of mediums to create subtle layers which create vibrant sculpted element(s) that makes one want to reach out and touch her art.
Probably the single most unique feature of her work is her ability to make each piece interactive with both natural and/or artificial lighting, so that each piece changes throughout the day or shifts with different viewing angles. In addition to the sculpture elements of her work, Tammi often uses color-shifting paints which helps her work find its’ own voice in every environment. Her work is often recognized for its’ unique style, bold colors and stylish sculptural elements.
Tammi encourages each person to find their individual interpretation of her work and often uses a deliberate vagueness or restraint in her creativeness. Tammi often names her art children after significant songs, short quotes and wholistic phrases with the desire to connect the viewer with a personal emotion or memory.
