2025

About the Item

I-95 18.0 x 30.0 x 2.0, 15.0 lbs Mixed Media Hand signed by artist Artist's Commentary: "This series of works features large archival photo transparencies of urban vistas. These images are encased in clear acrylic panels, enhanced with fluorescent or LED lighting, and mounted with stainless steel hardware. The monumental columns of the expressway stand in stark contrast to the surrounding weeds and discarded debris, evoking the tension between industrial infrastructure and the neglected urban landscape. The acrylic panels themselves take on an ethereal quality, reminiscent of the lacy, drippy forms of graffiti often seen on bus shelter panels or windows, adding an element of fragility and transience to the piece. This artwork can be used with or without the fluorescent light." About the Artist: Sculptor Karen Brown's use of mixed media reflects the complex relationship between the urban and industrial landscapes that surround us. Brown’s work explores the intersections of architecture, environment, and human intervention, creating art that is both visually striking and conceptually profound. Brown, a lifelong resident of Philadelphia now based in New Jersey, draws inspiration from the urban landscape, transforming what might be considered unsightly or overlooked into powerful, meaningful art. Her work invites viewers to reflect on how urban and industrial spaces influence and shape our lives and experiences.

Stardust Cephalopod, Original Contemporary Abstract Nautical Mixed Media Work
By Jenny Brown
Located in Boston, MA
Stardust Cephalopod, Original Contemporary Abstract Nautical Mixed Media Work, 2015 11" x 8.5" (HxW) Collage and Pen on Paper With clear inspiration from natural botanicals and oceanic life, artist Jenny Brown combines found imagery and her own mark making to create delicate yet bold designs. This work features a gray background that allows a colorful combination of paper ephemera melded together into a fantastical creature. Fine white lines emerge like tentacles, and small white dots scatter around the composition, bringing the work to life. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: Stardust Cephalopod is a bioluminescent flowering squid, existing both in the depths of the sea and the far reaches of the Milky Way Galaxy. She melds together the sciences of the oceans and the stars, linking the two natural spaces as one beautiful entity. Stardust Cephalopod is a mixed media work created with pen, ink, & collage. About the Artist: Jenny Brown is a visual artist living and working in Providence, Rhode Island, whose primary mediums are drawing, collage, and works on paper. Her work brings to life a mythical world of sea creatures and celestial beings, realized through her love of paper ephemera.

In addition to working with galleries in New York, Providence, and metro Boston, Jenny has collaborated with brands such as Hudson-Chatham Winery, Sheaffer Pens...
