Suzanne Caporael Exhibition

Miles McEnery Gallery

This event has ended.

Suzanne Caporael’s new body of work, titled Blue Uniform, is both of the mind and of the senses. Characterized by deep blues and the decisive placement of simple shapes that seem familiar yet just out of reach, the paintings reflect and respond to the complex relationship between the quotidian surroundings of the quiet studio and the dissensus and visual chaos of the outside world. The polysemic titles which avoid description or meaning invite contemplation while revealing the artist’s long-standing engagement in the lexicology of form. Spare and deliberate, each image is intrinsic to its process and its properties of wood, linen and paint. This economy of means and meaning may be meditative or challenging. Caporael consciously leaves that choice to the viewer.
