I approach sculpture from two different perspectives. First, I try to make each piece interesting on a purely visual level. Secondly, I attempt to use symbolism from the physical world, mythology and spiritual practices to challenge the viewer’s paradigms about our relationship to each other, to our environment and to the universe. In my opinion, the unveiling of the true Self and, consequently, nondual Spirit is the ultimate goal of art. You can substitute the word God, Tao, or whatever, for Spirit but it’s basically about the realization that “All is One†that I’m getting at. Nondual spiritual practices suggest that any separation we perceive between ourselves and others or any part of the physical or spiritual realms is an illusion. I think that this is intuitively what artists are doing when they create art. It represents an attempt to go from the finite self to the timeless Self. This type of art is sometimes called transpersonal art. It occurred to me recently that what I am attempting could be called “visual koanâ€. The intent of a written koan is to instill the understanding that the separation between subject and object is an illusion. Some of my artwork is a visual attempt at this type of practice. Purely representational art can expand ones consciousness as well, if it captures a timeless moment because Spirit itself is timeless; meaning not time everlasting but beyond time.
I believe that any art that disarms you, makes you smile, or makes you think, is successful. At the very least, most artists hope for an emotional response to their work; I love it, I hate it, it makes me feel…etc. It’s not uncommon, however, for two viewers to get radically different impressions of a work. I hope my work will inspire you in some way.

Dedrian Clark
Dedrian Clark grew up in the, then, quaint town of Saratoga, California, nestled below the redwoods of Big Basin State Park and minutes from the Santa Cruz mountains. Vacations were spent with her family camping and exploring the High Sierras and neighboring forests. Her exposure to nature throughout her childhood created a deep appreciation for the connection and interdependence we share with our environment, later becoming the inspiration and passion for Dedrian’s art in a never-ending endeavor to capture a bit of the beauty and preciousness of the world around us.
In 2015 Dedrian retired after a long career in the manufacturing and higher education environments. Up to this point Dedrian had dabbled part time in various mediums with a concentration on the techniques and basics of pastel painting. Retirement gave Dedrian an opportunity to go from dabbling, to full time painting – exploring the many possibilities of this beautiful medium.
In 2016, Dedrian moved her little studio from a corner of their Bow, WA residence, to a larger studio on the same property. Having a much larger space enabled Dedrian to expand her learning and experimentation, challenging herself even further. As an emerging artist, Dedrian’s work began gaining attention locally through the various galleries and juried exhibitions. Stephen Hunter reported for the Cascadia Weekly, “Not a stroke of color is out of place. Clark, upon retirement from business, enjoys an amazing burst of creativity: her studies of wildlife, domestic animals, moths, steam-sides and similar, quiet natural subjects are moving and luminousâ€.
Wanting to expand her capabilities even further, Dedrian began to work with oils in 2019.. The quest continues, as Dedrian works to express her deepest passion for nature and the environment, no matter the medium, in hopes that the joy of doing so, shines through her art.
