Freeman, Glenda

Freeman, Glenda



Nationality: American and Thai


Lifespan: 1971 ~

I was born in Chonburi Thailand on November 17, 1971, the daughter of an African-American military father and Thai mother. Growing up in both cultures has shaped my life and my art. Born into a mixture of eastern and western cultures that do not always mesh; Buddhism has been both a sanctuary and a well in which to draw strength and clarity from the culture clashes within my life. My work is both a reflection of my beliefs and an integral part of my Buddhist path but also it is the product of my life experiences; other times it is the path I use to work toward samma sankappa (right thinking).

My approach to art is much like my life, unique. I work on the floor to get close to my work, mostly using my hands or painting straight from the tube. The work pours out of me as I kneel and feverishly move over the un-stretched canvas. I take time to reflect on the painting before I consider how it will hang. Art at times should complement the space, other times it should dominate it, but always enhance it.
