Deborah Burdin<br />

Cavaliere dell’’arte<br />

Biografia<br />

Deborah Burdin was born in<br />

Rockford, Illinois in 1972 and spent<br />

her youth in Illinois and Iowa. She<br />

attended Iowa State University<br />

pursuing Fashion Design and<br />

Merchandising. Later she attended<br />

the University of South Florida in<br />

Tampa studying Psychology<br />

ultimately graduating with a B.A. in<br />

Psychology from Wright State<br />

University in Dayton, Ohio.<br />

Bringing to life the expressions of<br />

diverse emotions and everyday<br />

lessons, Deborah Burdin utilizes fluid<br />

whimsical form paired with texture<br />

and geometrical shapes meant to<br />

build up an emotional yet analytical impression. While employing a variety of<br />

mixed media, Deborah will occasionally incorporate found objects into her<br />

pieces to harmoniously deliver lush textures and soulful sparkle to her art.<br />

The intent of these works is to beckon viewers to find comforting connections to<br />

the expansive emotional world around and within them. To emphasize the<br />

intricacy of unique personal experience, Deborah builds a concept over layers.<br />

Each layer overlaps peeking through to the next in washes of color with<br />

assorted textural elements to emphasize depth of expression and to celebrate<br />

vibrancy of personality.<br />
