Studio Sessions: Mare Martin | Beyond the Botanical | Hilliard Art Museum

The Hilliard team visited Mare Martin in her studio in Opelousas, LA. Watch this video to observe the artist at work and hear about her process. The artist seamlessly integrates her life on the land as a gardener into her artistic practice. There is a sense of care in her application of line and color. Her beautifully rendered paintings and drawings possess a delicate ephemerality, ranging from abstract washes of ink, watercolor, and oil to undulating lines created with pencil or thin brushstrokes. Thick impasto layers of paint echo geological time, while glowing light and clay-laden frames echo the elements of earth and ether. Her studio and gardening practice include daily drawing, not as a way to capture a moment or represent what she sees, but as a fundamental way of knowing the world. Beyond the Botanical: Mare Martin is presented by Kiki Frayard -- Studio Sessions are produced by Hilliard Art Museum at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette © 2025 Hilliard Art Museum
