Enjoy the current 92YTribeca Gallery installation while the artists discuss their creative process in this informal discussion.
Dean Goelz's detailed drawings are composed of countless precise marks. Usually depicting a single figure or couple against a stark white background, each drawing exhibits a moment of decision, reflection, or anxiety. Sometimes standing on a tiny patch of grass, the figures in each drawing seem to be simultaneously alienated form their environment and on the brink of being devoured by it.
Colette Robbins describes her work as an “enigmatic twilight zone” that occurs when you stare at something ordinary, like an acorn or a freckle, and are transported into a seemingly uneventful time in your childhood that carries strong psychological uncertainty and visual clarity. Through this lens of perverse nostalgia, her paintings synthesize our cultural and personal histories full of both horror and empathy.
