About the Item

Photography has always occupied a central place in Debra Pearlman’s work, as direct street photography and as source material for paintings and photo-based objects. The subjects are typically children caught unawares in action, revealing an array of ambiguous emotions. The photographs record moments of unaffected physical language. Using certain images repeatedly, the artist distills them over time by altering materials, scale, and orientation. When incorporated into larger works on canvas, the images sometimes are cropped to create nearly abstract fragments. These may be overlaid with geometric elements that echo movement within an image, allowing parts of a photo to take on new meanings. I employ surface textures that refract and reflect light, reorient the images, and highlight moments to change context and focus. Information is layered, obscured, and revealed, offering new viewpoints. The passion to share a common vision and experience as we view our most vulnerable people—our children—is what drives the artist's working life. Debra Pearlman is based in Brooklyn. This is the artist’s first solo exhibition with ODETTA, having premiered her print Carousel at ODETTA”s Harlem space’s inaugural exhibition, Turner’s Patent Yellow. Pearlman’s work is included in the collection of The Museum of Modern Art, The Brooklyn Museum, The Walker Art Center, New York Public Library, Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, Museum Sztuki and Smith College Museum among others. She is the recipient of The Meredith S. Moody Residency at Yaddo, The Peter S. Reed Foundation, a Special Editions and an Individual Artist Grant from the Lower East Side Print Shop, and the Foundation for Contemporary Art. Her work has been shown nationally and internationally including SLAG Gallery, Sue Scott, Gallery, Exit Art, The international Print Center, The Biennial in Lodz, Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago and The Chicago Renaissance Society. Pearlman received an M.F.A. from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a B.F.A. from the University of Massachusetts.
