"Sea of Stripes: Pears" - still life with pears, stripes - Raphaelle Peal

2021

About the Item

"Sea of Stripes: Pears" is a still life painting featuring hues of green, yellow, blue and white. Jordan Baker is inspired by the works of Rachel Ruysch, Adriaen van Utrecht, Caravaggio, Raphaelle Peal and Velasquez. Hudson Valley-based artist, Jordan Baker creates paintings, sculptures and conceptual works. For OUT OF THE ORDINARY, Jordan created a group of works that represent her meditation on traditional still life painting, and finding dynamism in stillness and nuance in simplicity. “Sometimes we are told to not get lost in the details or get tunnel vision, but in this case, I allowed myself to do just that, exploring the interior world of these items,” she says of this series. The three paintings from the Too Much Is Never Enough grouping is an exploration on the concept of taste and the wavering line between excess and abundance. Instead of offering a tasteful amount of different items (two plums, a half a loaf of bread, a single glass of wine, etc.), she has composed a still life with a classically distasteful amount of a single item in order to explore the subjective nature of “good” taste. Jordan attended Tufts University, has a BFA in Art History from Syracuse University, and an MFA in Mixed Media from SUNY Albany.
