Canyon Lady
Legendary experimental filmmaker Chick Strand, vital and vibrant at 75
These days, Strand paints large, vivid mandalas ripe with meaning. “I’m totally unschooled!” she chortles. “Except for Neon Park and what he taught me, but he was unschooled too.” What’s she currently painting? “I had this affair a couple of years ago and it didn’t work out because the guy was a classic narcissist. So my painting right now is about that. It’s of a man dressed in a purple suit with red flames around him and he’s beating his own drum.” When asked what appeals to her about painting, she says that it’s less expensive than making movies. But then she gets to the heart of things. “I’m very satisfied creating works of art. I can’t seem to keep my mind from doing this, from painting or planning new films. It’s just what I love to do.”
