Line Work by Liz Mares






From the Artist's Statement:

Line has always been a mystery to me. It's subtle structure and the fact that it is (in my opinion) the starting point for all things. Over the years, I have become completely obsessed with the lines of architecture and engineering and how it relates to natural entities - such as the human body.

Working with line has become philosophy to me and my study and experimentation with it, induces a sort of transcendental meditation. This is where the formulas of my structures happen and this is how my art is born.

The exhibition, titled  How to carry a cloud,  includes a series of new paintings that explore hidden sources of water in the desert landscape. Rivas uses clouds and creosote bushes as metaphors for the interconnected sources of life-giving moisture in arid regions. Both reflect water stored in the land and the air, deceptively close and yet inaccessible. Cloud forms appear across several works, oscillating between pattern and landscape. As above, so below- creosote in its various forms appear as a familiar and familial plant speaking to the artists’ connection to the desert landscape, her family has lived in the borderlands since t...

Franz Kline: In Color

Franz Kline (1910-1962) is often pigeonholed as a "black and white" painter. Above is a selection of work by the Ab-Ex master in which color merges with gesture and at times takes center stage.
