About the Instructor:
Ana Koehler is a Burlington-based mixed media visual artist whose work is inspired by human bodies, transition, transformation, connection to self and the elements. Currently working with paper, the artist draws, paints, collages and creates time-based media, often through a process of constructing, deconstructing, and later re-imagining figures in new ways. The artist arrives at intimate, emotionally-charged, layered forms that are surreal and explore connection, fluidity, feminism, and existence. Ana's work can be seen on Instagram @ana_koehler and at Soapbox Arts in the Soda Plant in Burlington VT.
