The Witness Within

In the words of Frida Kahlo, these images are the most honest
expression of myself that I can show you. They represent all the things
that I saw, all that I witnessed and experienced, disassembled,
analyzed, and meticulously rebuilt into my own personal mythology. I
sought out landscapes I had ventured through as a child, carrying my
memories with me, and let each place tell a piece of the story as I
came to know it—slowly, in bits and pieces, out of time, and from
many different points of view.

I seduce viewers with rich, fantastical colors and landscapes, hoping to
open their minds and hearts and send them on a journey to discover
their own personal narratives, bringing them back to themselves and
thus their truths.

The images are best viewed 48”x72"

Teresa Meier is a Seattle-based multimedia artist that creates surrealist self-portrait photo montages. Her large-format narrative works incorporate themes of home, nature, and the interaction between humans and their environment that often leave the viewer suspended in moments of rising tension. Her fantastical subject matter and use of vibrant, luscious colors result in eye-catching and wonderfilled imagery. Ms. Meier's work has been recognized and exhibited internationally, recently appeared in Lensculture, Don’t Take Pictures, Pro Photo Daily, Communication Arts, and more.
