NYAB Event - Erin Raedeke "Things Left"

Closes in 2 days
At First Street Gallery
Media: Painting

In her first solo exhibition in New York City, Erin Raedeke explores complex relationships by observing the detritus of everyday life. In "Things Left," the still life becomes a vehicle for grappling with unresolved thoughts and memories. The viewer enters the paintings as if they were entering a play mid-scene. The elusive plot is not unlike the subconscious. Fragments are not connected in an ordered way. Patterns are observed and dynamics play out as the motivations of characters emerge. Is the whimsical bird in a painting an innocent witness or does it play a more complicit role? These are the things that are left in the residue of daily life.

Erin Raedeke received her BFA from Indiana University and her MFA from American University.
