About
Fiona Hoop
Professional
Artists in their own right, Mary Kennedy and Michele Woodey
began working together in the year 2000. They were commissioned
to create site-specific installations combining painting,
photography and interior design. This successful partnering led
to a deeper exploration of collaborative painting; a concept
which has its roots in the early Surrealist artists’ technique
of passing a piece of work back and forth. Each Artist
contributes an element in turn, until the chemistry is complete.
The individual elements must blend seamlessly and harmoniously,
as in a musical orchestration. Fiona Hoop is a pseudonym for an
ever-evolving duet exploring abstract, collage, encaustic,
landscape, figurative and still-life. The work is exhibited and
sold in New York, Dallas, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Toronto and
Vancouver.
