ELISABETT GUDMANN & KIRK SLAUGHTER

ELISABETT GUDMANN & KIRK SLAUGHTER

“Every move we make is about art,” Kirk Slaughter says. And he is not exaggerating. He and Elisabett Gudmann have a unique collaborative relationship. They live, love and work together 24/7. Even when they get frustrated or annoyed, the solution is a walk in the woods – together. They are quick to tell you it is not the perfect symbiotic relationship, but it is clear that they are puzzle pieces that fit together – one does not work without the other. However, they both have independent artistic visions and have developed distinct bodies of work.

Elis is a down-to-earth, what-you-see-is-what-you-get kind of woman. She, no doubt, got her blonde hair and blue eyes from her mom and dad, Norwegian and Australian, respectively. Her parents met in San Francisco – that’s where they stayed and raised a family. Elis is self-taught and self-educated in the fine arts. She grew up in a home full of fine art and antiques, took several trips to Europe and fell in love with the culture of art. However, she had relatives who were struggling artists, so she wasn’t always encouraged to follow in those footsteps. But Elis has always chosen her own path. She is fun loving and even a bit of a ham sometimes. When it comes to her art, though, she is dedicated, disciplined and tough. She has a unique artistic vision, and has developed her technique over many, many years and is widely recognized for her wall pieces. The hand fabricated metal panels are laboriously etched leaving detailed surface textures and imagery in relief. Beautiful patinas are achieved by working with a variety of chemicals and a blowtorch.
