TAYLOE PIGGOTT GALLERY

SECRETS IN PLACE Secrets in Place, Olive Ayhens’s first exhibition at Tayloe Piggott Gallery, presents a selection of oil paintings and ink and watercolor works from the mid1990s to the present. For the past forty years, Ayhens has focused much of her practice on the creation of environmental allegories, each as whimsical as they are catastrophic, which fuse antithetical and imaginary worlds into "jumbled panoramas,” according to Hyperallergic 's Stephen Maine. Her inventive contemporary landscapes amalgamate nature and man-made environments, creating implausible realms of juxtaposed skyscrapers perched on cliffsides on Northern California, as seen in Bejeweling the Massif (2009), or bustling traffic in a remote desert, as seen in Outskirts of Roswell (2014). Critic Jerry Saltz has described Ayhens’s work as “intertwining postapocalyptic narratives and prelapsarian bliss… Part Bosch, part Coney Island of the mind’s eye, these works place us inside scenes of destruction as curious gods look into and down on widening worlds.”

Area artists in the early 1970s who became known for work that drew upon feminist ideas, outsider and ethnographic art, and the Funk movement to explore more direct personal and social narratives. During this period, she was profoundly influenced by the form relationships of Pre-Colombian sculpture. Attracting the attention of California curators such as Philip Linhares and Whitney Chadwick, she appeared in group shows at SFMOMA, the Berkeley Art Center, Fresno Art Museum and Laguna Art Museum early in her career.

"My painting evolves from a special sense of place, and transformation of environments in my own quirky ways. Sometimes, a political/ ecological subtext, but always the love of the paint itself–with layering it, exploring & pushing color relationships, building textures, thin & thick, etc." Ayhens upholds that her work is grounded in abstraction. She embraces the language and aesthetics

Ayhens was active among a group of female Bay

of abstract painting in her focus on exploring color relationships, texture, scale, and the compression and expansion of space. Above all, Ayhens is driven by her “love of the paint itself- with layering it, with building textures, et cetera.” Ayhens has long been praised for her willingness to allow realism to dissolve into pure abstraction in her color-rich, kaleidoscopic works in which linear perspective is not utilized to anchor space, but rather to destabilize it.

awarded throughout her career. Ayhens strives to capture an essence of each place she composes, reconceptualizing, distorting, and rebuilding these places from her memory, her subconscious and, most importantly, from her imagination. Ayhens has taken care to deeply absorb the places she has spent time, as even her works featuring fragmented and amalgamated loci impart a profound and idiosyncratic sense of place. Her warping of space and place often imbues potent environmental implications into her works. Even so, in Ayhens’s creations, as The New Yorker's Andrea K. Scott articulates, "whimsy tends to outstrip dread.”

"I have fun with personification as well as improbabilities of scale. I am constantly renewed visually by everything around me, a feeling of the uniqueness of each environment in which I find myself. The very particular elements that arouse a passion within."

"All good painting with images has to work abstractly... The paint itself is sensual and tactile; I love it like perhaps a writer might love words. I enjoy surprises in my paint handling. Color is a passion and a power – I can make it balanced or abrupt like music – whatever is needed. I do see color and shapes as I hear music."

Simultaneously collapsing and expanding, corkscrewing and unraveling, Ayhens’s compositions evolve more or less autobiographically, taking from the many places where she has spent time, especially through the numerous residencies she has been

Yellowstone (1994), The Torrent of Venus (1995) and Wyoming Toad (2010) reflect Ayhens’s time spent in the American West teaching and participating in artists residencies, where she was moved by the monumental scale of nature in the Rocky Mountain region and the wondrous natural features that define it. Though the urbane does not creep into these works, each presents space in Ayhens’s signature state of panoramic distortion that plays on the scale of the American West’s seemingly endless expanse. These works still offer moments of caprice, as in The Torrent of Venus, which features a spectral red petroglyph of a nude woman (“She is me,” Ayhens reveals). The works of Secrets in Place span almost thirty years of Ayhens’s career, and are united in their play on spatial organization and scale, as Ayhens compresses and stretches uncanny realms into fantastical visions of improbable places.

widely throughout the United States and internationally. Ayhens has been the recipient of numerous awards and grants, including the Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters & Sculptors Grant, the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship, the Pollock Krasner Foundation Award, and the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation Individual Support Grant. She has completed residencies at Ucross, the Walsh Sharpe Art Foundation Space Program, MacDowell Colony, Fundación Valparaiso, the Salzburg Kunsterhaus, Yaddo Artist Residency, Djerassi Artist Residency, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, the Roswell Artist Residency, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, the Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program, and at Schwandorf International, Bavaria.
