Amaris on their process: In oil paint, I create abstract portraits, genre, and landscape which heavily rely on primary and muddy muted colors, stroke, and remnants or references to the many layers of the medium. My work relies heavily on gesture as the work is usually in some kind of classical pose or composition. In doing so I aim to create a familiarity with the viewer through classical elements of painting while presenting a different tone than from what the element suggests. My work intends to insinuate emotion and in common body language reaches out to the viewer and asks to be seen.

Excalibur creates spiritual vessels, and translations from beyond our material existence.
Excalibur Nayar was Born in New Jersey to a family of Nicaraguan refugees and Indian zoologists. Excalibur labels themself a translator/transmitter choosing oil paint as their language to bridge the gap between grief, divination, and a multiplanar existence. Via a private divination process derived from their indigenous Central American ancestry, they actualize “spiritual portraits” of individuals in their life. Nayar utilizes a library of images, objects and symbols from their heritage to make sense of their being beyond its fleshy vessel. Their work aims to engage in decolonial dialogues and contemplate both the temporality and permanence of a soul. These ethereal and personal portraits beg the question: who are you beyond your body?
