The Inglewood, California native spent the majority of her formative years mesmerized by California's coastal topography against the backdrop of encroaching development. This menace has been Mrs. Allebe’s most constant source of inspiration in her art practice. Image: Adrienne Alleb, Nesting (2009). Courtesy the artist.
