September 14 - October 11, 2024
From Main Gallery:
“My newest body of work has been a journey that started in 2019 after I lost my dog companion and then took a turn once the pandemic struck, as I picked up another medium during isolation fueling me to consider drawing in a way that would live side by side with painting. Within this time period, I created “Pandemonium,” figurative paintings with graphic elements reminiscent of comic book art of the 1960s. I wanted to continue this thread where the viewer sees the subjects as actively thinking and the figures communicate across canvases — on a wall. I also wanted to merge my new obsession with paint pens with my beloved oil paint. Together on spray painted elegant damask patterns, I intended it to evoke thoughts of mural art I imagined these images as those band and theater flyers I grew up seeing in Manhattan, posters layered on top of one another, peeling away, causing me to think about the sometimes-ephemeral-nature of images.”
