"For Hohimer, the last year, which included a move to Taos, New Mexico, was a time of profound artistic development and focus. Challenged and inspired by new staining techniques, material choices, and the colors of New Mexico’s winter, her studio practice flourished, and her work became more ambitious and expansive.

The included woven paintings range from ambitiously scaled works to more intimate compositions. Anchored in conventions of weaving, Hohimer’s inventive reinterpretation of traditional skills and remarkable adeptness with material and textures result in intuitively constructed and deeply personal compositions that alternatively conjure observations, place, and memory. Utilizing an open structure and reduced color palette reminiscent of her new surroundings, Hohimer’s explores the expressive potential of nuanced color tonalities to negotiate the confines of the compositional structure.

Looking at her work as a means of translating her own experiences and harnessing the energy of her impressions, Hohimer has created a visual vocabulary built on sensorial experience. Employing space, color and perception, Hohimer’s work seeks to, “…dive into the shared psychological landscapes that certain colors and materials provide…and propel truth, reckoning, and self-realization.” - Press Release by Evan Feldman.
