About the Item
Many of the works in this series have a similar viewing distance from the subject. In Untitled Construct 6 I wanted to close that distance by painting a picture with the view being closer to or within the form depicted. I wanted the compositional idea of entanglement to overtake more of the picture, rather than being nicely contained within a part of the canvas.
Subtle attention to light and color shifts across planes of the form retain the sculptural and photographic references, while the tight cropping flattens the image out overall by having the form extend beyond all four edges of the canvas. Repetition and rhythm rely more on the elements of the subject matter and less on the graphic elements that compose the background. I revisited the idea of an inverted white cast shadow from a previous work, to somewhat hint at a ground plane, while not explicitly defining it. Bold, complimentary colors flatten the form more, broadening the consideration of the work as both representational image and flat, graphic abstraction.

- INCLINED READER - Textured Oil Painting w/ Scene of a Girl Reading a BookBy Eleanor AldrichLocated in Signal Mountain, TNINCLINED READER is an oil and canvas painting by Eleanor Aldrich created in 2022. This piece utilizes a thick caulk on top of the canvas as an underlayment, adding a wavy, structural texture to the painting. In the center, we see a young girl reading. She’s laying on a bed, inclined slightly, with her head and gaze turned towards the viewer. Her legs, along with the colors of the background and the bedding, warp into rays emanating to the edges of the canvas. The painting resembles a nostalgic, family-archive type photograph, processed through a simple photobooth filter. INCLINED READER was featured as part of a two-person exhibition with Pamela Jorden...Category
