The artist

Cara Culmone

Detroit

Cara Culmone lives and works in Detroit. She makes diamond paintings — resin beads on canvas that read as a place, a flower, a face.

The pictures come from travel and from what she wants to keep: orchids on black, a blue shutter in the sun, the Colosseum at dusk.

The collection is shown as it hangs, in rooms and frames, so you can see the work in a house.

Statement

The work

Each painting is resin diamonds on canvas, set one at a time. Light catches the surface and shifts as you move.
