About the Item

Cahill strives to extend the historical conversation with line and elevate the integral role it has played in art, design, and the sciences since its early appearance in rock and cave drawings. Her paintings are comprised of a single, continuous line that changes color and connects back to itself: thus, inviting the viewer to a participatory and contemplative experience through the act of visual tracking. These multi-hued line formations are rooted in catalysts from art historical reference, geometry, visual semantics, or personal experience. The linear formations change color hundreds of times via the seamless application of up to 100 closely mixed, luminous, gradients that are laid down one brushstroke at a time in her attempts to contemporize line.

Lumina Fabricus
By Roi James
Located in Los Angeles, CA
In James' paintings, he explores how uncertainty can lead to meaning and understanding. How harmony can be experienced even within tension and chaos and how the recognizable can rise out of purely abstract form. In his abstract paintings he responds to these phenomena by creating contemporary icons – works meant to encourage contemplation and meditation. James' more recent works have evolved from the romantic representational ideal into the symbolic, abstract archetype. He comes from a classical background inspired by the great romantic landscape painters such as Turner, Lorrain, Friedrich and Moran, his recent work is more influenced by the work of artists like Klee, Miro, Rothko, Pollock, Riley and Richter. James creates complex abstractions layered in familiarity and veiled in mysteriousness. The unorthodox methods he uses to apply and move oil paint allow him to create compositions that are formally beautiful – infused with tension and drama but also expressive of the spiritual, symbolic, mysterious and eternal. James' work counters...
