Li Seagren is a painter based in Chautauqua, New York. She’s found using abstract visual language is the most precise visual word to express her feelings towards the world surrounding her. She’s deeply committed to the eastern world’s simplicity aesthetic and also inspired by the western world’s abstract expressionism. Her artwork emphasizes textures, mark making and colors that magnify mood and compel curiosity. Originally from Chongqing, China, Seagren earned an associate art teacher certificate from hometown Chongqing, focused on Chinese ink painting and watercolor. She holds a BFA in painting & Drawing and filmmaking from SUNY Fredonia.
