Artist Statement: Sarine Tebele’s work currently explores themes, scenes, and environments drawing from personal experience. She creates narratives and musings in response to her faith, spirituality, the healing process, inner-dialogue, family, and loss. She often works from photographs, memory, and imagination. Often, her process begins with creative writing, journaling, and meditation to find the path toward the next project.

Biography: Sarine Tebele is a visual artist and teacher. She began her training as an undergraduate student at The School of Visual Arts, 2005–2006, and has developed a range of skills in studio art in courses at Fashion School of Technology, The Arts Students League, and Parsons School of Design and Kingsborough Community College.
