Kaili Godfrey is an oil painter whose work explores the fluid nature of memory, sentimentality, and the ways in which people and places are recalled over time. Through her paintings and drawings, she seeks to capture the essence of fleeting moments, inviting viewers to reflect on their own personal connections to the past. Her work is not just about representation—it is about evocation, recreating the feeling of a place or a person rather than simply depicting them.

Color is at the heart of her artistic practice, serving as a powerful conduit for emotion. Her compositions guide the eye through layers of recollection, mirroring the way memories may shift or fade over time. Godfrey’s work reminds us that memory is both deeply personal and universally resonant. Her paintings serve as quiet invitations—to remember, to feel, and to see the past in a new light.
