2020
About the Item
Through drawing and mark-making, Nancy Agati investigates geometry, explores elements of growth, and seeks to reveal a sense of order or elegance. She is interested in the organic nature of line and the layering of shape and form. The imagery or objects she transcribes are derived from the natural world.
This large, dramatic work-on-paper is from Agati's "Undercurrent" mixed media series which emphasize the overlay of brushwork and intricate lines, drawn with handmade clay or slate-based paint, ink, and polymer. These works combine an array of organic forms with patterns of the flow and formation of water currents.
All pigments are mixed thoroughly with Golden's Acrylic Polymer mediums, and the entire piece has a final coat of satin polymer medium to protect the surface. The edges are lined with acid free linen tape on the back to prevent tearing. Signed on the bottom right front, also signed and dated on back at the top.
Agati's multidisciplinary work includes; works on paper, printmaking, sculpture, textile, site-specific installation, and public art. Agati holds a BFA from Alfred University, School of Art & Design, NY, and an MFA from The University of the Arts, Philadelphia. Agati has exhibited her work widely throughout Philadelphia and nationally including exhibitions at the Philadelphia Art Alliance, Hillyer Art Space, Washington, DC, Newhouse Center for Contemporary Art, Staten Island, NY, The Calandra Italian American Institute, New York, Crane Arts Building, Philadelphia, and Pentimenti Gallery, Philadelphia.
This piece is unframed and ships rolled in a wide, heavy-duty shipping tube.
