About the artist

Shuling Guo (b. 1986, Chao’An, China) paints through sensation, intuition, and quiet observation. Living between Philadelphia and a sailboat studio, her works are shaped by the cadences of nature; sunrises over water, shifting wind patterns, the act of listening to the sea, and to her body.

Drawing from personal experiences of motherhood, grief, and regeneration, Guo’s work resists overt narrative in favor of emotional clarity. She paints not what she sees, but what she feels. Petal-like forms, soft eruptions of color, and nearly imperceptible shifts in tone recall the spiritual formalism of Rothko, the intuitive geometries of Frankenthaler and af Klint, and the meditative restraint of Agnes Martin, and the unbridled euphoria of Agnes Pelton. Like Georgia O’Keeffe, Guo offers a devotional engagement with the natural world; less as subject matter than as a source of ongoing transformation.
