Arielle Shultz is an artist born in 2003 and raised in Pennsylvania. The artworks are explorations of textures as tangible representations of time; an ongoing process of covering up and partial revealing of what is beneath; the result of an accumulation of marks, layers, and material.

She enjoys studying human-made objects of the past in an attempt to define what makes us human. Most interesting are the subversion of objects whose function has been forgotten and now are intentionally repurposed. These later iterations, or lives of an object can reveal much about the character of its user.

All of the works are slowly assembling; simultaneously containing all which came before while expanding the container, in search of some analog truth about who we were and where we are going.
