About the Item
In Screen 2025.1, Melisa Taylor Metzger transforms a construction plywood panel into a vibrant, multichromatic composition that merges traditional craft with contemporary abstraction. Featuring a rich palette of cool and warm hues—including emerald green, deep blues, magentas, soft pastels, and areas of exposed natural wood—this piece evokes both energy and mystery.
Using pyrography as a mark-making tool, Metzger layers spray-painted color fields, stencilled shapes, and a meticulously painted linear grid. The interplay between hard-edge geometry and soft, optical blurs creates a dynamic tension between structure and fluidity, generating both depth and movement. The linear grid functions as both a formal anchor and an illusionary device, drawing the viewer into the layered surface while challenging perceptions of space and form.
Through this piece, Metzger reimagines traditional pyrography and grid geometry into a unique, hybrid contemporary visual language, offering a sublime meditation on the balance between the natural and the constructed. This tension between chaos and order, control, spontaneity, and chance reflects Metzger’s ongoing exploration of resilience and transformation.
*This piece comes ready to hang with natural wood edges.

About artist:
In Melisa Taylor’s work, the natural world acts as blueprint while ideas are sourced from historical art and contemporary culture. She pursued studies in Marine Biology before training in classical art of the Old Masters. She grew fascinated by the works of Flemish painters Vermeer and Rembrandt whose symbolic use of light influences her practice up to this day. Melisa explores the notion of the sublime through blur and precision. She develops an aesthetic of duality by hybridizing divergent approaches to art. Her studio practice is labor-intensive; various instruments and electric tools are used out-of-context to inject unpredictability in the painting gesture. She has assimilated to her visual language an eclectic multilayering process combining pyrography, sanding and detailed stencil compositions on wood. Embracing chance is a central idea in her work, equally so is meticulous control. This results in a subterranean tension that jeopardizes the ethereal appearance of her pieces; arbitrariness and mechanical execution fuse to create what she calls "systèmes faillibles" where spectral motifs seek to emerge out of obscuring lattices. Her work has been exhibited internationally and acquired in private and corporate collections across North America, Europe and Asia.
