Clearing, bright, multicolored, large abstracted landscape

2020

About the Item

The artist activates her landscapes with sensuous applications of pigment. She layers bold hues and constructs rhizomatic forms—then interrupted by intuitive streaks of spray paint. Like her creative forebearers carefully studying the cloudy English sky or the golden fields of the Barbizon, Krieger sketches and paints outdoors. She prefers to bring large-scale canvases into nature itself to accurately capture the fleeting qualities of leaves in the breeze and the changing light and shadow in
real time—or rather, her perceptions. Indeed, Krieger finds greater truth in abstracting the scenery before her using a non-naturalistic, ethereal color palette and interweaving constellations of undulating shapes. While her canvases sit in the grass propped up on nearby trees, the artist amplifies the branches and buds surrounding her with her broad gestural strokes— evoking the physicality and improvisation of 1950s Abstract Expressionist action painting.
