Cynthia O’Neill (1990) is a Baltimore based interdisciplinary artist who uses art as a method of healing, communicating and narrating personal journey. Illness and art have been constants in her life; survival and medical conditions often force her to consider anatomy when investigating how humans exist within the world. Through sculptures, body adornments, and installations her work explores consciousness, perception and the biology of the human condition with a variety of technology, biofeedback, human-made and naturally occurring materials.

ARTiST STATEMENT
There is cohesion in the collision of abstracted hue…
Focusing on the intimacy of human relationship, emotion, and
self-preservation, I create and communicate by joining the hands of color in various mediums. Through deconstructed
and re-assembled cut materials, paint, and sometimes just ink,
I investigate restoration with precision. The chemistry of colors combined are held together, even in fracture,
everything remains whole.
