As a being made of the same stuff as everything else around me, I visualize my consciousness like a little bubble of the Universe contemplating its own self. While we wonder who we are and what’s going on, so too does the Universe as a whole, via each one of us. Working in various mediums with my paint brush and laser cutter, I am no more and no less than a little conduit for the curiosity of existence.
About the Artist
Juliet Drake Hossain spent the first part of her creative life in the performing arts, working in music, theatre and film. She obtained a B.F.A. in Performance from Hofstra University in 2002, and professionally acted until the birth of her two children. As an Air Force spouse, she was afforded eclectic experiences while living in the Washington, D.C. area, New York City, Phoenix, San Antonio, Tokyo, Delaware and southern New Jersey. Juliet now works out of her studio in historic downtown Frederick, Maryland, and is a member of the Women’s Caucus for Art, D.C. Chapter, the Maryland Federation of Art, the Delaplaine Arts Center, the Frederick Arts Council, and the Frederick County Art Association. Her favorite tools are her paintbrushes and her Glowforge laser cutter, and her best inspirations are her vibrant children, space imagery, theatrical themes, nature and the contemplation of self.Featured Work
