Destin LaGrone is a classically trained, multidisciplinary artist from Dallas, Texas, whose work delves into the intricate tapestry of the human psyche.
Through mediums such as oil, ink, acrylic, and digital art, she explores the liminal spaces between dreams and reality, consciousness and the subconscious. Her creations are a celebration of life's vibrancy, interwoven with undertones that reflect the complexities of existence.
Influenced by philosophies and insights from Carl Jung, dream alchemy, hermetic wisdom, transcendental meditation and Taoism, her art serves as a conduit for self-observation and spiritual exploration.
Each piece is an invitation to journey inward, to confront and embrace the multifaceted nature of the self. She believes that by examining our inner worlds, we can better understand our connection to the universe around us.
Her process is intuitive and meditative, often beginning with spontaneous sketches that evolve into layered compositions rich in symbolism and emotion. Aiming to capture movement, meaning, and the feelings that reside in the spaces between. Through her work, she strives to reveal the divinity within chaos, offering viewers a mirror to their own experiences and emotions.
Currently seeking opportunities to share her evolving body of work with a broader audience. I invite you to explore her collections and join in this ongoing exploration of identity, existence, and the transformative power of art.
