MICHELE OKA DONER

Oka Doner is an internationally acclaimed artist, well known for her monumental works in public places, including Radiant Site, a 150 foot long wall composed of 11,000 gold lustre tiles at the Herald Square Subway complex in New York, and works for the Miami International Airport commission.

Oka Doner’s work is fueled by a lifelong study and appreciation of the natural world, from which she derives her formal vocabulary. Aptly called “nature’s scribe,” she translates organic forms into objects of natural seduction. She defines her task as “to materialize the ephemeral.”

For Oka Doner, if mythology is descried as a public dream, a collective venture of the imagination, then art could similarly be defined as a form of dreaming out loud, to probe the cosmos, express the effable, lend order to life and reconcile us to our fate.
