Annelie Solis, a Trinidadian artist exploring cosmological and astronomical imagery using materials provided by the Earth. The interest in artistic spiritual expression across cultures and religions led her to The Prince’s Foundation School of Traditional Arts where she has recently completed her Master of Arts, graduating with distinction. The experience at the School of Traditional Arts greatly enriched her arts practice through a deeper understanding of perennial philosophy and the craft process.

The use of natural materials has become of the greatest importance to her work as a principle. She found it is as critical to the essence of a painting as the symbolism of the imagery painted. She has learned these traditional methods and it is as though a veil has been lifted, and though her journey with pigment foraging is just beginning, it will be a lifelong pursuit.

She had several solo exhibitions throughout Trinidad and has participated in group exhibitions internationally.
