About the Item
We are excited to introduce the work of Kim DeJesus to the gallery. Her improvisational abstractions tap into her interest in memory - how it works and what it reveals about us and the world. In this new body of work, DeJesus explores how marks, colors, layers, erasures, and patches evoke remembrance and forgetfulness and suggest the discoveries we make and the absences in our lives. Her work is informed by a concern with the relationship between ourselves and natural processes, particularly the dichotomy we face in being simultaneously "a part of” and "apart from” the natural world. As the artist states: "This tension is echoed in the way I work. The material is not entirely controlled in my studio, allowing for accidents, discoveries, and an ongoing conversation between myself, the material, and what’s appearing on the canvas or paper. Frequently, I introduce marks and collage elements whose intentionality disrupts the happenstance of their fluid elements. The completed painting is a record of that process and the corrections and alterations that months of work bring about. Ultimately, I’m looking for artworks that depend for their transcendence in the tension between beauty and flaw, between grand ambition and simple means."
