Timelessness is an exhibition born from grief. Following the loss of her younger sister in the shadow of the pandemic, Anne Cutri turned to art-making as a path through mourning — and found herself on a far longer journey than she anticipated. Drawing on SoulCollage®, dream journaling, and Jungian art-based research, she followed her images inward and outward simultaneously, across time, mythology, and tradition. Stonehenge and the Great Serpent Mound, astronomy and physics, and the contemplative threads running through Islamic, Christian, Judaic, Buddhist, and Hindu traditions all became waypoints in an intuitive exploration of grief, interconnectedness, and what endures.
The result is a body of work — lavishly painted, deeply researched, and quietly transformative — that maps one woman's passage from loss to wholeness. Cutri presented this research at the Creative Psyche and Arts Based Research transdisciplinary conference in London. A collection of research currently in the process of being published through Routledge, entitled, “The Creative Psyche: Between Self and Spirit”
