Amy, you recently unveiled a new series of vibrant abstract works called Circular Reasoning. Tell us how you worked on this series. Did it include previously unpublished works that resonate thematically with it, or did you first come up with an image that you then dedicated your creative endeavors to?
This series came together through both intention and instinct. I started with the idea of using the circle as a visual anchor to explore ideas of time, rhythm, and continuity. Over time, the work grew into its own kind of rhythm, with each circle connecting to the next, echoing the cycles that inspired it.
As I created new images, I actively sought out circular elements in various environments, drawn to how the shape appears in unexpected ways. I also revisited a few unpublished works that naturally aligned with the mood and language of the series. Their inclusion wasn’t planned, but it felt like they were always part of the story.

I'm naturally drawn to circles for their shape, their sense of no beginning or end, and their strong, graphic rhythm
What is the circle, the main element of the series, to you? What meanings does it contain? What emotions are associated with it? Through these images, what would you like to communicate to the audience?
To me, the circle is both a shape and a feeling, something I’m naturally drawn to. It’s simple, endless and grounding. With no beginning or end, it brings a sense of calm and clarity. The circle holds space, but also feels expansive, like it is always moving and shifting. There is something about it that invites quiet reflection.
I'm naturally drawn to circles for their shape, their sense of no beginning or end, and their strong, graphic rhythm. Seeing them take form in these images brings me a feeling of balance, focus, and quiet strength. With this work, I want to create a moment to pause and think about how everything is connected and that nothing stands alone.
I hope viewers feel both steady and open, noticing the vastness in what feels familiar. The circle gently reminds us that we’re part of something bigger, always moving and changing.

Through the interplay of color, motion and meaning, everything comes full circle
How did you select the colors for the works in this series? Are they spontaneous color compositions, or are they the result of a carefully considered idea?
Most of the colors come naturally, just as I see them in the environment. I create my compositions by focusing on color, light, and shape, and how they interact at the moment through motion. I’m especially drawn to cold contrasts and vibrant tones. If my composition lacks a certain color dynamic, I will refine the way the colors relate to reflect the themes of infinity, unity, and cyclical movement. Through the interplay of color, motion and meaning, everything comes full circle. The goal is always to create an image that feels alive, drawing the viewer in through rhythm and energy.
You work with the ICM technique, which is inextricably linked to movement and time periods. How did this help or hinder you in creating this series?
Using both intentional camera movement and multiple exposure techniques allows me to capture movement and time in a way that feels alive and fluid. Their unpredictability invites experimentation, pushing me to stay present and open to unexpected results. I welcome these surprises and respond intuitively as I work. Blur and motion create overlapping layers that echo the cyclical nature of the circles and reflect the themes of infinity, continuity, and flow.
