Painter Carrie Marill divides ornament down to its basic components–shape, pattern, line, color, and dimension as the foundations of both human perception and artistic expression. Eschewing the delineation between fine art and folk art, and influenced by diverse art movements and theories, Marill’s works seem to extend into a separate dimension, a place of shape and color and clean, bright forms in sharp relief. Marill investigates abstract ideas and concepts surrounding how closely interconnected the lives of all living creatures might be. “They say the best place to start bird watching is in your own backyard,” says Marill, “so that’s what I do. The challenge in this work is drawing out the beauty in the mundane and frankly tragic things I see every day.” These views of the essential matter of our physical world, organized into startling patterns and unexpected geometries, suggest a luminous shared space of human pleasure and aesthetic inquiry.

In the verdant paintings of David Kroll, the natural world is mediated through human made objects of beauty or meaning. Centrally located vessels, globes, or memento mori are portrayed with the same serene elegance as the ecosystems surrounding them, which take the form of vines, flowers, and striking ornamental birds or fish, each flickering anatomy captured in precise detail. Compositionally, Kroll’s oil on linen works resemble classical still-life paintings, yet the scenes he devises are cleverly surreal and alive with mysterious motion and potential. Kroll’s delicate and exquisitely painted flora and fauna exist in a lush and timeless dreamspace. The artist remarks: “I paint personal refuges and interior landscapes… I try to create a connection–however fleeting–between the viewer and the power of landscape, the web of life, the idea of nature itself.”

The meditative garden of organic and ornamental forms expands into three-dimensional space in Kim Cridler’s vessels. In large-scale, immaculately fabricated works, Cridler intertwines the human pursuits of containment and ornament with the often unpredictable patterns of organic generation. Constructed of woven steel rods, Cridler’s vessels are embellished with unexpected organic treasures: the enchanting forms of birds, leaves, and flowers glimmer around the edges. These treasures are fabricated with a jeweler’s precision, from brass and beeswax, silver and horsehair, and gleaming faceted stones. Cridler remarks, “My work and research is rooted in the belief that the forms, processes, and materials that give flesh to objects of utility and ornament are rich with content–the tension between structure and decoration, the intellectual and the physical, the cognitive and emotive.”

In honor of Black History Month, today we are featuring Sonya Clark’s “Eyes on Freedom (Frederick Douglass)” —> swipe for detail 👁

This work honors the perilous journey of self-emancipated Black Americans who navigated by way of the Big Dipper, North Star, and improvised maps as they fled north. They offer a celestial viewpoint that encourages us to consider freedom seeking enslaved individuals whose forced labor built the wealth of this nation.

Sam Fresquez responds to issues of vulnerability and resilience through the lens of gender, examining the rigid and hyper-masculine culture surrounding NASCAR through performance and sculptural installation such as intricately beaded racing flags and fire suits. These fire suits—sturdy, thick, and rigid—are employed by drivers for protection. The racing suits are displayed hung on the wall “until the next race”, and are scaled to fit the artist yet represent the fictional “first Latina NASCAR driver.” The colored glass beads have been methodically placed to create familiar patterns such as flames or surprising slogans like “YASCAR”—drawn from a corporate branding campaign by NASCAR to celebrate Pride Month. The beaded artworks are at once strong and fragile, functional and decorative. Fresquez’s works challenge the rigidity of such binaries and asks the viewer to imagine new societal arrangements that might structure our lives.

Did you know that Benjamin Timpson’s pieces have a light element? 💡

Timpson’s light boxes operate on 13-minute cycles of increasing illumination as the microscopic wing structures present dramatically shifting hues and iridescence throughout this cycle.

In addition to persuading viewers to slow their examination of his work, or to return for a second look, Timpson believes “the illumination also acts as a candle–as you would light a candle for a loved one.”

Exhibition ends TODAY at 4pm 🦋

In addition to the upcoming Killers of the Flower

In addition to the upcoming Killers of the Flower Moon film and current tv series Alaska Daily, we’re pleased to see Three Pines, a new show adapted from the Louise Penny novels, amplifying Indigenous voices on the small screen — season 1 is streaming now on Prime Video.

This show delves deep into the heart of French Canada. Benjamin Timpson’s pieces shown here: Aielah Saric-Auger and Banff County Jane Doe were both Indigenous women who were murdered in Canada. These pieces and more on view now at Lisa Sette Gallery. Exhibition ends TOMORROW.

The artist Benjamin Timpson’s use of deconstructed and intricately overlapped butterfly wings as a medium of portraiture presents his subjects as woven from the complex materials of memory, nature, metamorphosis, and survival. In 2017, after a DNA test confirmed his family’s generationally-concealed Puebloan ancestry, and a close relative was badly beaten by her boyfriend, Timpson began making portraits of Indigenous women, a population that is disproportionately affected by violence and homicide.

Timpson’s portraits of those who have been affected by violence is both a means of increasing awareness of this problem, and a way to return agency to the women he portrays: in the transcendent meanings and shifting patterns of the wings of a butterfly, Timpson’s subjects are both ephemeral and radiant with lived humanity.
