2014

About the Item

Shelves/Seles IV (After Mondrian) is an oil on burlap painting, 60 x 48 inches, and unframed as intended to hang. The painting is signed and dated verso 'HELEN REBEKAH GARBER JUNE 2014.' Garber’s practice relies upon a refraction and distillation of the various formalized aesthetic elements operating within the iconographic systems of different religious traditions and the critical assessment of abstract, symbol-based vocabularies. By separating the imagery from its original purpose as a signifier of specific dogma, her intention is to create a formal matrix of abstraction through a process of layering and negation, weaving brushstrokes in a loom-like manner – fusing the tactility of textile work with the flesh-like qualities of oil paint. The resulting works function as monolithic structures that convey the universal, while aggressively negating all ideologies. By deconstructing these sometimes disparate vocabularies through their base symbolic structure, repetition within seemingly disconnected communications begin to emerge and become the underlying architecture of the work. She incorporates these structural carriers of information into the greater conceptual whole. The fragmented information is reassigned new definitions, and becomes the basis unto which a working language of symbols is constantly available for redefinition.
