Editor & Publisher

A lot has changed in Texas since our first review of artists working in the West. If its contemporary art scene can now be said to be thriving, then Houston is that scene’s engine. Eighty years ago, oil tycoons and art patrons John and Dominique de Menil moved to Houston and, through their philanthropy, set the tone for the city’s now robust cultural landscape. While many might still consider the city to be well within “fly-over” territory, over the past twenty years, Houston has quietly become one of the world’s great art cities, boasting world-class institutions, galleries, and, increasingly, artists. Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and pilgrimage-worthy Marfa are also hubs of creativity. There are, of course, gifted artists working in Santa Fe, Denver, and throughout the West, but Texas looks after its own, and, especially in recent years, a number of strong voices have emerged from the Lone Star State and gone on to attract international attention. Among them are Trenton Doyle Hancock, Deborah Roberts, Maja Ruznic, Jammie Holmes, Jamal Cyrus, and Vincent Valdez, who is

Jessica Simorte

Juror’s Pick p132

Jessica Simorte’s intimate paintings remind us to account for what surrounds us—whether it be the mundane patterns in a rug, the frame of a doorway, or the shapes and colors produced by a small field of flowers. Her abstract works poetically compress and very slowly elucidate a unique point of view that only sometimes offers a sense of clarity. Such is the state of the world, where the whirls of our daily lives can both overwhelm us and fulfill our joys and desires. n

Vincent Valdez

Editor’s Pick p140

I have been a fan of Valdez’s practice since first coming across his work at the now defunct Wester Project in Los Angeles in the late aughts. From a purely technical standpoint, he has always been an extraordinarily gifted painter, but it is his unflinching subject matter that has gained him wide acclaim in recent years. Given our fractured political landscape, this is, perhaps, not surprising. Valdez draws from history in an attempt to reveal our current reality. His work is both a warning about the ease with which the sins of our past can revisit us and a proclamation that we have it within our power to do better. n

that examine our relationship with the natural world or with notions of place and/or history. Renee Lai, Mihee Nahm, Sean Cairns, Charis Ammon, Lillian Warren, and Cassandra Chalfant inspect the various junctions of natural barriers, public space, memory, and otherwise forgotten aspects and details that make up daily life. Meanwhile, artists such as Farima Fooladi and Erika Jaeggli actively interpret the vagaries of specific places in the global landscape as a means to analyze how our bodies connect to geography, culture, and lived experience. By encountering these varied ideas through these artists’ paintings, our understanding of how we inhabit and mold the places where we settle becomes fuller and more nuanced. Elsewhere, other artists interrogate thorny or abstract ideas of sexuality, psychology, technology, and lyrical eclecticism as ways to engage more fully with what it means to be a person or how to relate to others. While not a small or easily contained topic, artworks seen here deftly navigate these views with gusto and intellectual heft. Broadly, painting in all forms encourages and rewards slow looking. The selected works purposefully reflect an expansive range of viewpoints that fold out and extend in many different directions. In considering these wide-ranging narratives, we are

There’s a political agenda in my work. It’s sometimes subtle and other times expressed more overtly. While I’m advocating for a more compassionate immigration system, fundamentally, the work is about connecting the viewer emotionally to the people in a painting or drawing. I take care to capture facial expressions, gestures, and personalities. I often rely on the additive and reductive process in painting and drawing to find the portrait and the figure. While I fully render some parts of the figure, I also like to use loose marks to emphasize movement, activate the space, but also as a vehicle for expressing myself and connecting to the person in the portrait.

My work deals with impermanence, indulgence, and belonging: three interconnected pillars of the queer experience. I am a gay man whose father immigrated from Mexico and whose mother comes from a family of cowboys. My work responds to these heritages by showcasing the fallacy of masculinity central to both. I create images of a world where things are beautiful, temporary, unfurled, and tender.

I show men in love. I show groups of queer friends drinking and talking. I show flowers in full bloom, at the edge of wilting, fighting for their own beauty. And I show windswept landscapes of the place I am from: a place of deep thunderstorms and dried grass and conflict. I hope, by presenting these images in often monotone, shadowy compositions, to present a vision of queer resilience.

I paint the surfaces I travel past in daily life. My focus is on liminal spaces, like construction sites and scrapyards. As I move past these public spaces, I carry my inner world with me, finding moments of connection with my surroundings as I walk. The weathering surfaces of American cities whisper our shared stories of disrepair, resilience, and change. I see my story implicated in these spaces. These paintings are moments of empathy—when my environment gave me access to myself and a connection to my community.

I am a storyteller who paints with a whimsical view, as I have always loved cartoons and animation. My paintings are stories of people, relationships, nature, myths, dreams, and locales that are painted in the folk-art tradition, from the heart. My ideas come from nature, different cultures, and all forms of media. When I first saw the work of folk artists, I instantly connected with the spirit of their art. Like my own work, it is honest and unrestricted. Most of my works make people smile, and humor has a place in the art world. I enjoy twisting and poking fun at us and the current state of affairs. Other paintings are meant to teach or give pause to reflect on our status as human beings and how we relate to others—our fellow man as well as the natural world.

I would like to bring a sense of magic to painting. Figurative vignettes play in a land as charming as it is foreboding. Intimate memories, often pulled from my rural upbringing, are enlivened with elements of color field painting, folk art, and symbolism. Meditations on the strange innocence of life, love, longing, and romance within the turbulence of a mysterious world. Abstraction and landscape merge. My images are designed to morph in the mind of the viewer, to find connection and recognition in shapes that are not always as they appear.

My work delves into the ways we experience our most personal images. How do we hold them, alter them, imagine or escape them? Why do we review them over and over again? Largely through photographs and imagined spaces, I explore my own memories, the collective memories of my family, and worlds I have created—immersing myself in places I’ve been, in times that never existed, and times that happened, but not for us.

Anointing Spire, Tyler School of Art, Temple University,

The photographic image is vital to much of my work, serving as both context and content. The collection of images used within my paintings spans decades, incorporating found photographs and photos taken by myself and family members. This timeline points to the change in the recent history of the photographic image and its increasing influence as both a reliable and deceptive form of perception, shaping how we remember and how we analyze. Depicting familiar places and imagery, my paintings present an indistinct narrative, unclear if it is real or fiction.

The cities I inhabited growing up in Iran and the everyday urban environments I occupied as an adult provide the primary visual inspiration for my paintings. I address displacement, delving into emotional and historical layers of public space and memory. The way societal changes transform civic spaces interests me. The visual language in my landscape paintings grows intuitively out of my imagination and experience.

Interview, Maake Magazine

My images compress architecture and landscape from my childhood in post-revolutionary Iran with those in the US. Examining historical appropriations for my work enables me to enhance the materiality, significance, and placement of my images in the present day. I combine details from southern Iran’s dry environment with the luscious flora of my home in Houston, Texas. Water appears as a motif in the form of pools, waterfalls, and lakes. Water is a texture and a symbol, referencing specific yet undocumentable recollections and its shifting availability due to climate change. The eighteenth-century Parisian water carriers’ call did not mention “water,” but “life.” They offered life for sale.

I believe that there’s a lot to gain from an upfront and honest contemplation of one’s own mortality. My work is a celebration of life. A product of my own thinking about death. My overt take on the vanitas painting. I wish to communicate my personal experiences to others as directly as I can. That is where I feel the visual and musical arts are at their most potent. So I will leave it at that, and let the pictures do the talking.

I paint from motifs that change over time—a lemon tree as it grows and its fruit matures, a cluttered living room, or the things on a kitchen countertop that shift about during the day. As compositional problems present themselves in the paintings, I’ve started using arbitrary planes of color to resolve them. This has freed me to make intuitive, spontaneous adjustments while I’m painting. As I make these changes to balance the composition, the surface of the painting becomes crusty with the layers of changes I’ve made over time, and the space of the painting becomes fragmented.

Corpo a Corpo, Museo Pietro Annigoni, Florence, Italy Personal Spaces, Danese/Corey, New York, NY

I’ve been working on a larger scale in my multi-figure compositions, filling the canvas with closely packed, life-sized figures that reference historical paintings. I’m interested in how the figures relate to one another—how one body presses up against the other, how the gesture of one figure might be repeated by the one behind. I think the play of abstraction and figuration in these paintings is particularly compelling.

Inspired by the complex nature of life and the intricate mannerisms of people, I share my discoveries through multiple mediums in art. Through my journey of self-discovery, the lessons that I find significant not only serve my artwork but will also serve to inspire individuals with neglected creativity. Drawing inspiration from depictions in cinema to a concrete reality shared by all inhabitants of the world, I use what I see as a muse for my creativity. Proceeding after an excursion to the Netherlands, I began to unlock my own creativity. In the time since, my work has evolved into figurative images, continuing its evolution as I begin to add fabric onto my paintings.

Call us who we left behind, Modified Arts Gallery, Phoenix, AZ TAFF Grant Exhibition, Mood Room Gallery, Phoenix, AZ

As a painter, I portray the African American experience, sharing my story with compelling images that embody the beauty of Black life and the sorrows. As a poet, I use words to expose internal emotions with metaphors and similes, while sheltering an external image through rhythm and flow. Using fashion design as a tightly woven basket to carry my unique skills and traits.

I am an oil painter who strives to be a chronicler of everyday life and everyday people. My work is an extension of my studies in journalism. which taught me the art of observation and to create an engaging scene from seemingly normal surroundings. I often capture scenes in plein air on location, which allows me to immerse myself in a subject. My paintings are a representation of the small slice of America I occupy. and I hope they speak truth to its diverse, ever-changing, conflicted, and beautiful nature.

“In this Artist-Parent Series body of work, I chose to spotlight working artists in Houston, San Antonio, and Austin who also have children. I felt it was important to showcase a different side of the working artist’s life. In this collaboration, I asked each artist to submit a photo or image that depicted how they see themselves balancing being a working artist while raising their children and then I recreated it as an oil painting.

The tension between a digitally networked, screen-based experience of the world and a physical, tactile experience has never been more acute. My works reflect this fragmented reality by combining painting on canvas with screens, tablets, and other electronics and consumer goods. The painted portions of my works function as images but also as symbols and archetypes of oil painting itself, pointing toward painting’s capacity for slowness, its fraught history, and its unique physical presence. By looking at painting as a form of media technology—and recent tech as creative material—I try and see contemporary forms of media more objectively and thus more critically. In doing so I channel my own discomfort with the slippery present into precarious, momentary wholes.

My work is about storytelling, and my recent work uses my own life experiences and that of other women to tell stories about difficult things like violence, loss, mental illness, and trauma. I grew up in a culture that did not grant room for such conversations, and I needed to make work that allowed me to talk about “heavy” things while creating space for others to feel seen.

I use ambiguous narratives and both directly personal and coded references to illustrate a range of experiences and emotions. I wanted to show women struggling with things out of their control as well as women surviving and caring for or defending each other. I used cinematic/archetypal imagery and melodrama to create a sense of distance from which the viewer can experience these narratives in a safe and hopefully cathartic way.

Through painting I use materiality to reaffirm the material world. The vocabulary of images I use is idiosyncratic but also serves as evidence of my biography. My personal aesthetic evolved from sensibilities that hearken back to my youth. I’ve never outgrown the clarity of imagery endemic to cartoons. Because of this persistent interest, I have purposefully adopted palettes and compositions from cartoons and other graphic visual cultures to create narrative-driven paintings.

My practice consists of painting, drawing, digital media, and sitespecific installation. I am interested in thinking beyond a humancentered understanding of the earth. My work is heavily influenced by field research, most recently into underground cave systems of Texas. Making connections between the body, land, and time, I am interested in alternative perspectives of landscape to engender a cognitive shift in how we think about the environment. Using raw pigment, digital drawing, rainwater, and wax in my process, my paintings are artifacts of their time and space. Though the outputs may vary, my practice is singular: I use the language of abstraction to make connections between the micro and macro. The big question for me is understanding the interdependency of how we exist within our environment and how our environment exists in us.

I love my images. I spend hours looking through pictures, finding the right one. If I am lucky, they love me back and translate into a painting. Examples of references for my work include vintage nudist magazines and missing person posters. My execution is figurative work in a realistic style, constructing a trusted replica of reality. My subjects are typically on the edge of distress or discomfort. In my work, there is an underlying pressure to accommodate, to meet societal standards, and an anxious impulse to be happy.

My latest painting series, Some Americans, grew out of several (ongoing) road trips in the rural South. Though I’ve lived mostly in the North, my own Southern heritage goes back over 400 years, and I spent much of my early years in my grandmother’s house in Mobile, Alabama. I’ve tried to present these subjects as they are without comment or criticism, motivated only by my fascination with American culture and, in this case, a particular regional culture for which I have both some misgivings and much affection.

I work in painting and drawing, exploring the role barriers play in our ideas of belonging, security, and fear. Barriers are supposed to be sturdy and invincible, but they also evoke ideas of slipping through or in between, under and over. I play with the scale and permeability of the barriers, toying with where and how things can pass through.

An emphasis on line and repetition is present throughout my work—line as the delicate thing that connects while it divides, calligraphic line as the manifestation of my Chinese heritage, absorbed from growing up surrounded by cheap reproductions of Chinese paintings. My work moves between abstraction and representation to explore both the conceptual idea of barriers as well as the physical shape of the structures.

Portraits: Impressions of Our Times, Louise Hopkins Underwood Center for the Arts, Lubbock, TX

2021

The inspiration for my artwork reflects my interactions with people, of which I remember certain scenes, atmospheres, colors, and gestures. When I was a teenager, I suffered from severe atopic dermatitis and experienced recovery from skin keloid. Since then, I have become very curious about human faces, especially eyes. As the proverb says, “Speech is silver; silence is golden.” Our eyes can express a great deal of insight about ourselves. Depicting the eyes is, in a sense, the same as depicting myself in the mirror. I try to embody an image of myself in each portrait that I paint. I create paintings that are often a reflection of my own issues and thoughts, which are then combined with the model’s personality and their stories. While I find similarities and differences in gender and race as delightful encounters, in my mind I create an “individual” or “new character” in my paintings that does not exist in real life.

Several years ago, I returned to the house where I grew up. Since then, I have been creating paintings, drawings, and, recently, collages of my 81-year-old father. In my painting as well as collaging process, I strive to balance perceived form with painterly invention. I oscillate between accurate visual representation and invented abstract forms. Shapes come together, forms materialize . . . then fall apart. I desire to create a layered accumulation of paint/paper and memories, a woven tapestry that reflects a holistic view of my subject. Often, I feel I fall short of my goal. However, I believe the record of my effort reverberates with its own psychological strength.

2018

In my paintings, I ruminate on the same handful of shapes and ideas. Bodies are reduced to a series of repeated curves and lumps that I layer, flip, and conflate in a seemingly endless chain. In the work I ask: Can repetition, at some point, result in an escape from the same inevitable results? Does a certain amount of failure open up a portal to something different? I grapple with the perpetual absurdity, hope, and frustration that accompanies occupying a body that holds “endless potential” and endless cultural baggage. Rather than the work describing the climactic fulfillment of desire and touch, it points to the inability to fully realize these desires and a reckoning with cultural expectations of femininity, fecundity, and aging.

I create oil paintings that depict everyday flora encountered on my daily walks. I began paying more attention to my surroundings around the time I started walking my dogs. The repetitive paths I walked forced me to look at what I had once neglected. I noticed the subtle differences among previously indistinguishable plants and I gradually focused more on what made them unique. I began photographing what captured my attention. These images are cropped, color-corrected, and/or composited to an altered image that communicates my attraction. I enjoy the labor-intensive nature of the indirect painting method. With mimesis as the primary goal, I begin each painting with varied approaches, but what is consistent is that all of them are done in multiple layers. Layering allows a second chance. Rather than needing it to be perfect the first time, I approach the subject matter slowly and organically until my initial attraction appears on the canvas.

Packard’s paintings understand the canvas as an archive for actions and attitudes that examine how formal and material relationships can reflect on the construction of identity. These works began their life as a drop canvas on the floor of the artist’s studio, where they collected daily accidents and drippings, cleaned brushes, and excess paint. These drop canvases are fragmented, then reassembled into a community of works with a shared history and culture, yet each piece operates as an individual. For Packard, these ripped-apart and haphazardly repaired paintings on raw, unprotected canvas represent a queer, HIV-positive world that falls short of norms, expectations, and ideals. Packard shoehorns together disparate gestures—uninhibited, gratuitous expression and controlled, analytical forms. The inherent values in these contradictory gestures generate a shared visual lexicon by quoting and reinterpreting one another to explore and complicate the ways we perform identity.

Artist of the Year, Lawton Fort Sill Art Council

I believe that all visual artists go through stages in their career where they explore not only different mediums and subjects but also themselves. It has always been important to my development as an artist to go through these stages of exploring myself and different ways of creating, because they have pushed me to come out on the other side a better artist and person than I was. Initially, the paintings that I created were based solely off of stock images of celebrities that I found on the internet. As I grew as an artist, so did my desire to become more creative, and so I began photographing men, women, and children that I know. Over the past two years, my paintings have focused on the Black experience as I have known it through my life. It reflects a softer side of Black people, yet still shows our strength and resilience, something that I want to see more of in galleries and museums.

Honorable Mention, 2022 Outwin Boochever Portrait

My creative process is inherently about labor. Against the modern backdrop of instant, image-driven gratification, I have found the physical process involved in the painstaking rendering of a subject or a moment to be ever more important. The focus of this work centers on questions of truth, historical amnesia, and the veracity of the stories we tell ourselves about our collective pasts. The drawings are recontextualizations of archival historical material, and walk the line between describing a shared, forgotten history and prophesying a terrifying, Orwellian future. I am fascinated by the way our societal amnesia is such that we have entirely lost touch with events that should have been indelibly burned into our collective cultural psyche. While the works come directly from actual recorded moments, they create a dizzying sense of dreamlike dislocation—are the images real? A dream? It is this tension between imagination and reality, actual past and possible future, that I wish to explore.

IT’S A SIGN: Exhibition I, Marquee Projects, Bellport, NY

My realistic oil paintings examine the duality of the female condition—a dynamic balance between vulnerability and resilience. I hold space for paradoxical emotions and give people permission to express pain, sadness, and frustration without judgment. Female figures inhabit surreal psychological domestic spaces. They are melting, translucent, fractured, and possibly on the edge of a mental breakdown—their emotional states are manifested through various stages of physical collapse. My process begins with a treasure hunt for figurines that seem strangely haunted, sad, sexual, or otherwise easy to anthropomorphize. Utilizing a variety of methods involving paint, wax, and resin, I transform dollhouses, figurines, and miniatures into theatrical dioramas that serve as still life subjects for my paintings. I use dark humor and bright colors to engage viewers, making my work a catalyst for conversations that acknowledge and normalize feelings of isolation, loneliness, and loss.

Horror Vacui, Leon Gallery, Denver, CO Then Again, Rule Gallery, Marfa, TX

My paintings are an attempt to reflect American culture; loud, boisterous, violent, a complicated overlapping cultural milieu, a beautiful, chaotically exuberant spectacle, a construct held together by tenuous belief. The language of art history is turned back on itself to investigate contemporary anxieties: isolation, the overabundance of contradictory information, mediation, cultural exchange, representation, and ownership. Through the abrupt rupturing of tired tropes, accepted narratives are subverted and expanded into multifaceted images that reject easy reduction.

My Name Is Too Long to Be Marketable: New Paintings by Diego Rodriguez-Warner, Von Tornow Gallery, Denver, CO

By placing layer upon layer of images of different styles and periods, using juxtaposed and often contrary techniques, I intend to invigorate the works with a certain deliberate, vibrating contention. Loud colors splash pop cultural garishness, a candy aisle beauty that on closer inspection belies a complex internal logic at a cinematic scale. The seductive sensory overload in the resulting paintings entangles viewers into uncomfortable involvement with, analysis of, and reflection on a society of competing narratives tearing at the seams, simultaneously coming together and at risk of falling apart.

UNTITLED, ART Online, w/ Luis De Jesus Los Angeles (online)

Sanchez’s works focus on Cuban current events and politics as seen through the lens of portraiture. His recent paintings explore how proximity and union, ever-present aspects of Cuban society, inform notions of solitude and intimacy. Each painting captures a small scene of mundane events that occur daily on the island. In these snapshots, the distractions of urban life are minimized and attention is brought to bear on a particular and present moment. Sanchez’s oil paintings are carefully rendered with classical technique. His use of realism produces “an authentic and inescapable illusion of existence” that brings the viewer into a closer relationship with his subject. The figures portrayed—his wife, family, friends, and acquaintances—serve as depictions of the warm yet stoic nature of Cuban culture that has changed little over time—a reminder to the world of what has been lost. Sanchez excels at creating scenes of togetherness and social unity.

These small acrylic paintings ultimately connect to the public through what I see as one of many universal cultural connections, the pull of place that operates on all of us. This work is an ongoing examination of how artmaking can serve as a mode of placemaking. Through painting I am able to create environments that engage in a manner that is suggestive but not specific. These works are meditations on the infinite power of physical and psychological space.

Concrete Pocket, with Max Manning, Houston Community College, Central Art Gallery, Houston, TX

Abstraction is the framework with which I investigate ideas of place dependence and the psychological need to belong somewhere; approaching abstraction as an allegorical language is ideal for connecting the nonconcrete value of belonging within space. I have adopted a sincere approach to contemporary painting—these works are produced with an introverted inclination and modest scale. By looking at interiors through the filter of materials and physicality, the work ultimately focuses on drawing and painting as a means of navigating physical and intangible places.

When painting my subjects repeatedly, I feel more akin to a performer. A singer? An actress? (As this is what we call them . . .) There is magic in putting my mind in someone else’s body to catch feeling at a particular moment in time. Making each painting is always a new beginning. A constant debut.

These subjects are framed by my personal experiences and examination of contemporary life in twenty-first-century America. Distorted social realities such as economic and racial inequality, conflict, hypernationalism, sanctioned violence, and other systemic patterns that historically serve as prelude for democratic decay compel me to reflect on my social environment. I am alarmed by the denial of history. I will continue to create visual counterimages to impede the social amnesia that surrounds me. Painting can’t change the world. But, it can provide critical moments of silence and clarity during times of immense distortion and chaos. I stand firm in my belief that the artist must play a role in a rapidly changing society. It has been my life’s effort to create a visual language entirely my own, driven by a pursuit for skill, reflection, and conviction. Here are my visual memorials to the experience of being human.

My subject matter revolves around transitional spaces and conditions, whether they be physical spaces or emotional states. My current series features the mundane urban/suburban landscape painted in acrylic and oil on Mylar. I am drawn to the unexpected poignancy of this landscape, emptied of people but with the heavy footprint of our presence. I love the quite isolation of the transitional in-between spaces of my city. My process starts as I take pictures with my phone while out on a walk or running errands around my home in Houston, Texas. Then I modify, simplify, and collage this source material on the computer to form a “digital sketch” that reflects my sense of a place, or even just a “kind” of place. The image evolves further as I immerse myself in paint. I want to create a painting that is intimate since it is based on personal memory but somehow representative of a collective memory, because you feel that you’ve passed by these places before.

Life Raft, my current body of work, helps keep me afloat. It’s a way of surviving, managing, and overcoming the rollercoaster of high and low energy. Life Raft is a ritual during which I paint and listen to music simultaneously, often with one song on repeat until a painting is complete. This process helps me access energies, feelings, and memories, which I imbue into each work. I resolve paintings because I want to resolve something within myself. The color and spatial relationships in my paintings can be lyrical, peaceful, disruptive, or tenuous, depending on my state of mind. I ebb and flow between control and release, chaos and order, creating complex and dynamic abstract paintings. Ultimately, I seek harmony and balance in the interaction of these elements. This search for synergy is mirrored in my life, but I am secure on my Life Raft, for now.

Caroline Zurmely’s art is often driven by material, texture, and process above theme or subject. Recent series include nailpolish-enamel relief paintings and pieces made by manipulating the fibers of vintage towels. Her work with nail polish explores tabloid photography and scenes of public mourning in tight close-ups, crafting opposing senses of intimacy and remoteness between the viewer and subject. Utilizing unconventional materials and restricting the scope of her pieces, Zurmely aims to alter the viewer’s experience with respect to distance.

Material Girl(s), with Victoria Gonzales, Union Art Gallery, Denton, TX

My work engages with the passage of time and the ways in which both found and created objects can preserve moments. Objects can serve as vessels for ever-evolving personal sentiments. Found materials are used to draw out and lay bare the personal yet often unknown histories of both their previous owner and the journey of the item itself. By repurposing found items and reproducing my own everyday personal effects in my work, I preserve my subjects and create memorials to the mundane. Through their transformation, the memorialized objects are given a new life to exist as an artwork. By doing so, I express and resist the erosion of time on the objects and my connections to them. The inclusion of found and created possessions connects the individual narrative at play in my work with the anonymized pasts of my working materials.

2021

Compositionally, I am painting the space between and around forms as much as the forms themselves. The composition and shapes I use on the canvas convey negative and positive spaces that alternate: sometimes the dark color recedes into a void, a nothingness; at other times, the darkness emerges to become the subject and the gradients of colors become the background. The gradients are a gradually dawning or dimming light source, an expansion, and a fleeting moment of time. Some shapes come close to touching but do not; there is tension and longing in that sliver of space between them.

“On-the-Spot with Aleya Hoerlein,” The Brooklyn Rail, July Elisa Wouk Almino, “A View from the Easel During Times of Quarantine,” Hyperallergic, April

I work intuitively, painting the initial linework and shapes on muslin stretched over wood panels. During multiple reworkings, I fill in the shapes with colors, repainting everything in several layers and refining the edges as I go. I often apply a blended gradient of bright and/or complementary colors and a solid black made from a mix of deep blue and red oil paint. The resulting paintings evoke ambiguity and a realm of possibilities.

The work portrays symbiotic relationships between figures, exploring what we give each other and what we owe each other. Figures mirror each other’s movements, creating reflections and repetition of familiar actions. Everyday experiences like fixing a neighbor’s sink or watching a friend get ready for a night out can be a revelation. These familiar actions convey a reflexive understanding between loved ones. Many of the works explore sincerity in performance during social gatherings. The mythologized party is a way to navigate the complexity of American adolescence, while road trips and tarot readings serve as tools to reflect on that period of life. Most of the works are set at night, with lighting choices that reference comingof-age television shows. Saturated color conveys melodrama and tension, revealing emotional urgency. Many of the figures return the gaze of the audience, as if they are waiting to have their photo taken. This creates the illusion that the audience could step into the work and be a part of the events depicted on the canvas.

The Real and the Fantastic / The Irrational Joys of the Axis, Inman Gallery, Houston, TX

Alexis Pye makes paintings about the fantastic that dwells in the mundane. Her work weaves the ordinary with embroidery frames that look into everyday life with a touch of the marvelous. She explores the tradition of portraiture as a way to express the Black body outside of its social constructs, evoking playfulness, wonder, and Blackness, as well as joys amidst adversity. These paintings offer intimate glimpses into the garden-immersed environments of her subjects. Pye is also interested in domestic space and surrealist elements, introducing the outside into the inside and vice versa. She is experimenting with furniture- and world-building, inspired by the philosophies of Black surrealist thinkers such as Aimé and Suzanne Césaire.

Scenes from the Time Collapse, St. Paul the Apostle,

My paintings are elaborate fantasy worlds of impossible spaces. I’m interested in finding a sense of tranquility and transcendence in the work while negotiating with disorientation, irrational nonsense, and absurd perspectives. I start my process by making an oil monotype on a large plate of plexiglass. I use my body weight to create the print. This approach creates time pressure and unpredictable outcomes because I have to finish before the paint dries. It isn’t always clear what’s going to happen when the painting gets pressed onto the paper. This way of working enables me to experiment and take risks at a fast pace. I then mount the print on canvas over panel and work into it with direct painting. The idea is to create a magically ordered world out of managing the chaos and uncertainty in the print. I slowly paint out most of the surface with tiny brushes over time and add in whatever feels right along the way.
