Marie Kirk Burke‘s work is both figurative and intimate. It is not about literal content but a pictorial and conceptual experience. It is the difference between a detail and a perception, between imitation and representation. She works to create a nostalgic realism that moves towards a contemporary impression, capturing a simple fleeting image and the sentimental impact of its commonality. Marie hopes to present the viewer with pleasure and insight into the broader world by focusing on a small aspect.
Marie received a B.F.A. from Boston College, studied at the DeCordova Museum School in Lincoln, Ma. and earned a certificate in painting from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
