Tara Walters is one of contemporary painting’s most quietly radical voices. Her work is mystical yet materially rigorous. It feels like a dream you could fall into at any moment. 

“There are moments where I am not in control. Dots, washes, and textures form organically. The water moves, the paint sets, and the world performs its own elemental work. Some of my paintings even feature crystals that formed from working with ocean water. They are delicate and require careful handling, which mirrors how we should care for the earth itself.”
