Amy Genser works with paper and paint to explore her obsession with texture, pattern, and color. She uses paper as pigment and constructs her pieces by layering, cutting, rolling, and combining paper.

Amy’s love affair with paper began in 2000 in a paper-making class at the Rhode Island School of Design, where she got a masters degree in Graphic Design.

The natural world is a clear source for Amy’s work. She is fascinated by the flow of water, the shape of beehives, and the organic irregularity of plants, flowers, rock formations, barnacles, moss, and seaweed. Her pieces bring to mind aerial landscape views, satellite imagery, and biological cellular processes.

Amy’s work is macroscopic, think colossal, like the movement of tectonic plates, shifting waterways, or ravaged landmasses in a slow slide. It is also microscopic, mirroring duplicating cells or the tiniest whisper of complex thought.

She exhibits her work internationally in galleries, art fairs and museums. She has created numerous commissions for private and corporate clients as well as works of public art.
