This event has ended.

The Wild Project presents Day Of, an exhibition of abstract paintings by Elizabeth Deasy. Her instinctual approach to painting is always about the present moment of creation, leaving the work charged with emotional resonance. The paintings employ a variety of complex color schemes and techniques that create varied spatial propositions and evoke the tactile quality of light. The following is a statement by the artist about her process:

“For me, painting is a practice of being absolutely present with myself. This involves making whatever choices are the most compelling to me in the series of balancing acts that constitute creating, whether those acts are methodical and discreet, or impulsive and brazen. In mixing a palette from scratch, and in trusting the coupled and collective wisdom of my eye and hand, I conjure into existence fragments of my inner world: the parts that lie just beyond the reach of language.”

Elizabeth Deasy is a painter based in New York City. Her work has been exhibited in New York, Chicago and throughout the United States.
