IN BLOOM | April 5th - May 3rd 2025

Sandi Seltzer Bryant’s In Bloom explores themes of growth, transformation, and discovery through dynamic collage paintings. Drawing inspiration from the layering of experiences, cultural textures, and global travels—most recently through Bhutan, Nepal, and Tibet—the exhibition reflects her creative evolution.

Through In Bloom, Sandi Seltzer Bryant collects and integrates visual memories and materials from different cultures, weaving them into richly layered compositions. Influenced by the intricate textures of textiles and handmade papers, Bryant works intuitively, allowing each piece to build upon the last, creating depth, movement, and connection.

At the core of the series is a fascination with humanism in an era of globalization. By embracing both cultural differences and shared experiences, Sandi Seltzer Bryant invites viewers to engage in a visual dialogue that celebrates the vitality of the human spirit.

Sandi Seltzer Bryant earned her B.F.A. in Painting from Carnegie Mellon University in 1974 (Pittsburgh, PA). Her work has been exhibited in a number of collections nationally and internationally, in places including California, New York, Washington, D.C., The Netherlands, and South Korea. In February 2020, all media associated with Bryant was archived by the University of Houston Libraries Special Collections.
