Artist Statement
Rachel Burgess makes autobiographical works on paper of landscapes and domestic scenes. Window-like in scale, her pieces combine elements of oil painting, folk art and commercial illustration, exploring our attempts to impose narratives on our lives. Attracted by the accessible, democratic nature of printmaking, she works primarily in monotype, straddling the divide between popular and elite forms of storytelling.
“Deli Flowers My Husband Bought Me” is based on flowers that Burgess’ husband, an NYPD detective, has brought home over the years from their local corner deli. Through iconic renderings of these simple gifts, Burgess pays tribute to the things we take for granted – to the city, to its essential workers and services, and to the fundamental relationships that underpin our lives.
Originally attracted to the flowers’ bold shapes and colors, Burgess began sketching them for fun before eventually turning them into large-scale monotypes. To make each piece, she paints in oils on a large sheet of plexiglass, then lays a piece of paper on top of her painting and runs it through a printing press, creating a single, unique impression. The fact that traditional deli flowers like daisies, daffodils, lilies and mums are simultaneously quotidian and beloved makes them a perfect metaphor, both for the unassuming beauty of works on paper and for the humble joy of day-to-day life.
