Cosondra Sjostrom is a contemporary abstract painter developing Existential abstraction, a practice where the intimate inner world of an individual expands into shared human experience.
Through Abstract portraiture, she creates paintings that carry the psychological presence of a specific individual while resonating with universal emotional truths.
Each work begins with a conversation, lived experience, or personal narrative. What emerges is an abstract portrait: a layered chromatic record of memory, identity, transformation, and human experience.
The rectangle, Sjostrom's defining motif, functions as both structure and threshold. Through dense impasto, excavation, and luminous layers, each painting becomes a material record of emotional and psychological experience.
