About the Item
Melissa Shaak’s “Canopy” is a 22 x 30 x 2 inch acrylic painting on paper, mounted on cradled board. The striking, vibrant blend of green gold and teal is full of movement. Loose, scraped lines of deep maroon and pink add structure. While abstract, the painting clearly points to natural elements. The viewer could be amidst trees, looking up to their canopy, or aside water, with a bridge to traverse it. The paint, applied quickly and improvisationally with a brayer, conveys a freshness and optimism that would brighten any space.
Melissa Shaak's abstract acrylic paintings balance color shifts with amorphous forms that appear ponderous, whimsical or surreal. She explores how the act of concealing, by means of overpainting with large swaths of flat color, reveals and brings focus to the sprawl of life in the layers underneath. In Shaak’s most recent work, she experiments with both imagery and medium; archetypal figures find themselves in paintings, sculptural cutouts of their forms, and as an ensemble captured on video. Shaak lives and works in Somerville, MA. She is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
