Allison Rohland / Winds of Change

Allison Rohland is an internationally exhibited abstract artist based in Seattle, Washington. She believes art can be both a mirror and a salve — a way to integrate and celebrate the fragmented parts of ourselves. Her layered, mixed-media works explore themes of healing, identity, and emotional connection.

Working in emotive abstraction, Allison combines bold textures with vivid color through paint, collage, and mark-making. Each piece feels raw yet refined, inviting viewers into a sensory experience where feeling leads and form follows. Her work as a teaching artist with individuals with intellectual disabilities and Autism has reinforced her belief in the power of art to connect and uplift.

Her body of work is an ever-evolving exploration of one’s identity and experience in place. Each emotive abstract uses bold texture and color through mixed media relaying internal and external expressions of moments in time.
