FEATURES

EMBER DE BOER

b.1998 based in California. 

Now creating works centered on ethnic and environmental research with a focus on representation and historical identity through abstract forms and experiments with material.   

de Boer is Dutch for “of the farm” or “of the land”. A name taken from her Dutch ancestry, she centers her body of work on sustainable and ethically conscious environmental artwork.

Creating a series of psycho-analytic abstract sculptures and creations that challenge identity through physical and conceptual deconstructionism.  

She is a part of the Exhibition Committee for Women’s Eco Artist Dialogue and a resident artist at Community Shop Class. Ember utilizes multi-format technology for her studio practice and works by assemblage of organic texture, painting with layers of broken glass, to make abstract geometric forms.

IMPACT at Sacramento State

The acronym—Individuals Motivating Progress Across Communities Together—defines the primary goal of IMPACT club; a collective of multidisciplinary members who garner resources to promote personal, educational, and career growth within their local region. IMPACT is focused on developing a diverse community and welcomes all students with an interest in creative process and collaboration.

“My first piece of advice is just fucking live.

Without life, art is boring.

And without art, so is life. 

Go hike. Go explore the weird alleys. Look under the brown dumpster, or maybe behind it. Go get to know the owners of the grittiest hardware store in town. Take pictures of the oddest things to your midwestern sensibilities. And keep a photo journal. Keep an active sketch diary. In a nutshell, let the inspiration come to you. It will. Just don’t force it.”

Mark Cowardin

Art Department Chair and Sculptor, Johnson County Community College

“Your sculpture really makes me feel something—it takes me somewhere.

There is the feel of something very ancient holding the contemporary up for scrutiny.

The Earth from which we’ve been formed cohabitates with that which we form from the Earth.

The maker and the made in dialogue.

Sharp angles of ego metal and broken identity juxtaposed with the organic shapes of rock and fire and glacier.”
