The subjects of her paintings are immersed in a dreamlike space alongside unique objects that the artist has collected over the years. Shelby Seu describes her paintings as “portals that pull the threads of our shared worlds together into a fabric of time, emotion, memory and connectivity. Serving to communicate the subconscious mind and interwoven tales of lived experience on this planet.”
