Press Release, Agora Gallery SoHo, New York
In hushed, ethereal hues and rich earth tones, Renee Breig's abstract compositions sustain an ecstatic, continuously emerging dialogue with the viewer. Blithe, luminous washes of color nebulously cohabit with rich, deep, primary pigments, evoking a vertiginous aura of light and space. Through an unfettered and buoyant sense of composition and an extravagant use of color and shape, Breig fosters a blissfully liberated relationship with her work.
Originally a floral designer in Sweden, she began painting through the principles of Vedic Art, which has its roots in Indian culture and traditions. Breig describes Vedic Art less as a set of rigid principles leading toward a prescribed technique, and more as a "way to remember how to paint." Through her audacious painting style, she strives to reach beyond the human instincts of hesitance and fear to describe a personal vision of elation. Born in 1968, Breig has shown her art in Sweden, the United States and in Italy. She lives and works in Ljusdal, Sweden with her husband, Kristofer and her son, Simon.

What is Vedic Art?
Vedic Art does not teach anyone how to paint - No - Vedic Art is a way to remember how to paint. And not only to remember how art can be created. From the very beginning, when we hear about the seventeen Vedic Principles of Art, we begin to remember the whole story of life. From where we come, and where we are going.
Vedic Art contains a navigation map. Use the compass You have in Your brain and find the way to the chamber of peace in Your heart.
Then - when You dip Your brush in light, space and bliss, eternity will be pictured.
When You enter into Your work of art - in Your selfreferral dialogue - You will find the code of how life can be lived and how a piece of art can open doors in heaven and on earth.
