Khara Woods uses materials, pattern, and abstraction to great effect in her studio practice. Her gridded hard-edge compositions incorporate warm wood grain with a bold, personable palette of saturated colors. The intensity of the color and tightly packed lines in this exhibition create a visual effect in each work of art whereby the bold colors and uniform patterns may cause a patient viewer to perceive vibrations and pulses across the face of each painting.—Hilliard Art Museum, University of Louisiana at Lafayette
