Artist's bio and statement:As an artist, an international lecturer, and a writer, I have long endeavored to connect art with other domains. The varieties of visual perception are my primary interest and I have spent the last thirty years building both an intuitive and academic understanding of our perceptual experience. My paintings and works on paper show my efforts to depict compelling, dynamic relationships as I manipulate color and form. While not explicit in the imagery, scientific studies in neuroscience and psychophysics have been a major factor in my recent work. Thus many of my paintings are closely tied to my academic research. They are not, however, intellectual exercises. Rather they represent an expressive response to my studies of human vision and indicate how this research has allowed me to deepen and expand my understanding of my intuitive perceptual processing. In the past, my art has been commissioned by the City of San Francisco, has been exhibited extensively in the United States and Europe, and is found in many collections. Recent publications include Studio Ione 2003: Artwork by Amy Ione, the illustrations for Tjotjok (a book of poetry by Jerry Bass), and Nature Exposed to Our Method of Questioning. I have also published a number of articles on art, science and technology relationships in the books and journals of several disciplines.
