From Blind Alley:
“In a statement about the show, she explains, “The installation at Blind Alley considers light, reflection, and materiality. Throughout the space, transparent washes of greenish pigment are applied to the wall and floor. The shapes evoke cast light, disappearing and reappearing within the reflection of the glass façade of the space. The vibrant, pastel blues are achieved by applying thin layers of verdigris- the blue-green patina that forms on copper. Paired with copper plates tarnished with fingerprints, the work detaches and recontextualizes the patinated surface, transforming it into light.”
