Kristin Baker — Sturm and Drang
Kristin Baker

Sturm and Drang

Kristin Baker's *Sturm and Drang* is a dynamic two-panel acrylic on PVC work that channels the restless energy suggested by its name, a term historically associated with emotional intensity and turbulence. Baker's signature style of layered, racing forms and fragmented shapes creates a sense of high-speed movement, evoking the visual language of extreme sports and action. The translucent PVC surface enhances the luminosity of the acrylic paint, adding depth and a charged, almost electric quality to the composition.
