Cyndie Rauls resides in the Driftless Region of Wisconsin and dives deeply into the relationship between what is found and what is lost. She uses materials at hand, often found objects, to create her sculptures. Her process is intuitive, allowing the gathered objects to guide her in physically documenting their story… sometimes as a proxy to her own story. What materializes is an abstract meditation on the beauty and emotional power of these objects. Her sculptures are intended to draw attention to the medium’s journey, as well as the artist’s journey, in an attempt to preserve a fragment of their existence before they are lost forever.
