Corinne Semper, Just Like the Sindia, These Traditions Will Be Buried Too, Mixed Media: plaster wrap, acrylic paint, wood, canvas, plexiglass, sand, seashells, paper, plastic, glue, wood putty, 12"x12"

​

     Just Like the Sindia, These Traditions Will Be Buried Too explores a family’s decaying tradition of annual travel to Ocean City, New Jersey in comparison to the island’s infamous Sindia shipwreck. In a similar fashion as the Sindia, this lineage is slowly being swallowed up by the metaphorical tides and sands of time.

     I am an American visual artist born and raised in New Jersey. I received my Associate’s Degree in Fine Art: Visual Art from Community College of Morris in 2019. I am currently working towards my Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Arts at Montclair State University. I specialize in pencil drawing, acrylic painting on canvas and canvas board, and digital illustration using Paint Tool Sai and Photoshop. My work focuses on realistic representation through still lifes and portraits of humans and household pets. My work has been featured at the Mayo Performing Arts Center and Morris Museum. I have received the “Award of Merit” from the Mayo Performing Arts Center in 2019 for my acrylic painting titled, “Polychrome Still Life.”
