Everson Museum, Syracuse, NY
Golden acrylic paints and mediums
9′ x 9′ x 6″‘
Inspired by the paintings of the Abstract Expressionists and based on a series of maps of the Upstate NY region the paint has been created without a support structure. By removing the canvas and having it engage directly with the surface of the museum the painting explores the tenuous yet critical relationship between artist, art and institution.
