Alternate Side Parking

Two of my meditation drawings are included in the group exhibition Alternate Side Parking at Starta Arta this spring, April 26 – May 26, 2023. Stop by and check it out!

Starta Arta
220 E 23rd St, New York, NY 10010
Gallery Hours: M-F, 1-5pm and by appointment

Alternate Side Parking explores the complex interplay between personal adaptation and the role of chance in the creation of art. It is inspired by the concept of alternate side parking in New York City, which requires drivers to frequently adapt to parking regulations. The exhibit showcases works of art that reflect the resilience and creativity of artists in the face of established rules and change each in unique and different ways.

The exhibition was curated by Anna Fateeva, Markus Holtby, and Oxana Kovalchuk.

Westside Exposure: Whitney Staff Art Show

My drawing Untitled (layered meditation) was included in this Westbeth Gallery exhibition (September 2022) of work by artists who also happen to work at the Whitney Museum.

Layers of Time

Layers of Time” opens today at Upstream Gallery, and will remain on view through July 25. Three of my pieces are part of the show, including the drawing pictured here. The exhibition title feels particularly apt, not just to my work, but to the way we’ve been moving through the past year and a half… (What is time?!)

Hastings-on-Hudson is a quick train ride or drive out of the city if you’re in New York and looking for an excursion up the Hudson Valley. I took advantage of my drive up to drop off the artwork by hiking at Blauvelt State Park that afternoon as well; it was refreshing to be surrounded by so much green! Upstream Gallery is an artist-run space; I met a couple of the members and they were very friendly and welcoming.

May shows 🌷

Here are the details for three chances to see my work in group shows this month – one in-person in NYC, and two virtual.

Things to Fall In Love With was the earliest drawing of these three pieces, and the other two were created in 2020. You can see how the series of drawings has evolved to include more colors and layers, and even the painting seems cohesive with this body of work. Sometimes my painting and drawing processes feel almost too distinct, but here things seem to hold together.

Building on pieces like the ones below, I have been doing more experimenting lately with layering painting and drawing elements together. Acrylic paintings over colored pencil grounds, ordering new paint markers, as well as making some paintings on found patterned paper rather than a background that is hand rendered.

virtual: “Geometric Gestures” at dodomu gallery, May 6-June 2

Untitled (layered meditation)

in-person pop-up: “May I…” at StartaArta, May 6-14

in situ: Darkest Before Dawn

I recently picked up these three drawings after the conclusion of “Darkest Before Dawn” at Ethan Cohen KuBe which was extended through the end of February. Really appreciated the pairing of these pieces with a loose gestural wall drawing that provided some warmth and high energy.

The drive to Beacon was all almost-green, everything on the verge of displaying springtime growth. The red flourishes on the wall below were part of a larger mural in the KuBe, which inhabits an old school building in Beacon, NY.
