Miranda Maher
Green and Blue 1 : abstract work of art on paper

2022

About the Item

An artwork on paper by New York artist Miranda Maher. Made with Reproductions of maps of the moon printed on Unryu Inkjet washi, mounted to Magnani cotton paper, Overlayed with Sumi Ink brush strokes and Indian marble paper. Miranda Maher’s artistic journey is a profound exploration of discrepancies, mistakes, and the intricate web of lies that shape our perceptions. Maher delves into societal self-deceptions surrounding the discourses of violence, femininity, and our relationships with animals and nature. Working in series, components, or repetitions, Maher rejects the notion of encapsulating her complex thoughts and feelings in a singular artwork. Instead, she treats each series as an individual project. In her recent ink work, where marks sprawl across numerous pages, Maher seeks to comprehend consciousness, awareness, and the fleeting nature of a moment in time—a poignant reflection on the inexorable passage of time. The artist’s creative process has recently focused on the profound act of making a mark on paper with ink. Maher ingeniously combines it with elements that transcend the immediate moment, integrating it with astronomical diagrams and 19th-century photographs. The result is a visually striking, intellectually stimulating body of work that invites viewers to contemplate the layers of meaning embedded within each piece. “Visions Obscure my Vision” delves into the elusive nature of our perception. Our ability to see ourselves, the world, and the vast universe often seems just beyond our grasp. Within the collage series, the artist skillfully blends prints of the moon with dynamic, flowing shapes created by her own ink marks and vibrant cut-outs of Indian marble paper. These moons subtly retreat into the background, allowing the intricate structure of the image to assert their presence and unify the entire composition. The collages evoke the challenge of obtaining consistent clarity amid the cacophony of fears, hopes, and ever-shifting illusions that obscure our understanding of truth and reality.
