In this work, there is a physical exchange of energy between a body and the world which I relate to the work of Susan Rothenberg. Her work has a relationship to energy in the form of flesh and spirit. “It was important that I was painting something that was alive. I didn’t want to paint something inanimate. I needed flesh and spirit. I guess I wanted to paint the kind of energy you find in the real world rather than the abstracted world.”
Whether physical or intellectual, my work also tries to catch some kind of alive but frozen energy.

Sharon Hogg is a visual artist working in Calgary Alberta and Lombardy Ontario, Canada. She holds a Bachelors of Fine Art and a Masters of Fine Art from the Alberta College of Art and Design.
Where humans intersect with unseen natural forces, she imagines what lies behind or beneath the surface. More than seeing, she wants to feel the backstory, the understory, the glue that holds it all together. Her work seeks to bring that underlying level of awareness closer to the visible and the touchable.
The Sublime, New Materialism and the Vorticists are influences.
