We are pleased to be showing new works by New York-based painter Julie Gross.
From the artist:
Since 1998 I have been using compasses to choreograph a network of circular forms, originally based on a sine wave or ‘s’ curve. These play with my interest in centrifugal/centripetal forces, in edges that set up tension as well as flow.
In the paintings, these forms serve as vessels for color. Color decisions begin intuitively, and build, based on desires for either harmonic or dissonant relations. I balance using what I know and what I don’t about color, allowing it to declare itself, yet keeping surprise in the equation.
Discreet relationships emerge from the interplay of color and form, in a tense field where subject and ground alternate. I want the images to act as suspended, yet connected slices of light, breathing, tense and emergent.”
