Susan Homer "The Travelers Return - new paintings"
Metaphor Contemporary Art
This event has ended.
In Traveler's Return, her second solo exhibition at Metaphor, Susan Homer presents new paintings which gently extend her reach into the hidden corners of nature and the secret places of her own romantic imagination. In her lavish and painterly works Homer strews fields of flowers across surfaces rich with incident and creamy impasto. For Homer, an avid gardener, the slowly developing nature of her paintings echoes the slowly unfolding processes of nature itself. The multiple sessions of work that go into their making leave behind layers of information and traces of brushwork that become part of the topology of the paintings imbuing them with a tactile generative energy and a deep sense of time.
