Judith Nilson "Five Paintings"
This event has ended.
At Safe-T-Gallery
Media: Painting
Five new, richly-pigmented, finely-detailed, abstract paintings by Brooklyn artist Judith Nilson will go on display at Safe-T-Gallery on Thursday May 15th in a show aptly entitled “Five Paintings.”
Working from a base of intense color, four of the five paintings dark with graphite, each painting develops a patina-like network of fine markings. These marks, mostly made with the edge of a razor, resolve into complex forms that evoke both biomorphic and geological features. As the marks extend over the surface and into the depths of the picture, an over-arching composition emerges that contains both tense emotional passages, but also areas where time moves at a much slower, almost evolutionary pace.
