Amanda Nedham
Potatoes, or, Everything is Everything I

2020

About the Item

Amanda Nedham collapses the monumental and the mundane through radical memorial gestures. She is interested in how drawing intersects with architecture and is subject to change. In her Flashlight Drawings, she layers drawings of flowers found in Houdini’s grave in Brooklyn, a sketch of a Bruegel painting, and a stencil of Elaine de Kooning’s hands with a cigarette. The drawings began during the pandemic and were worked on during the course of two years. They reflect the journey of trying to make sense of a difficult and all encompassing situation, increasingly being drawn towards a cycle of additive and subtractive drawing, and abstraction. She aptly refers to these works as "dynamic ghosts," evoking a transient quality.
