In a two-person exhibition at Work Gallery, Hannah Barnes and Kristine Taylor present new work that explores ideas of longing, desire, and the profound urge to ‘make-visible’. Working across painting, drawing, collage, and temporary structures, Barnes and Taylor tease out the liminal space where painting, drawing and sculpture overlap.  Their work combines visual elements culled from urban and suburban landscapes, from sites of spectacle such as sporting event and carnival, and from the rich history of modernist abstraction. At the core of each artist’s working method is a commitment to painterly process, a desire for work to arrive as much through intuition as through intention, and a strong sensitivity for the inherent poetics of materials. In each of their work, image, form, and substance work together as an emotionally charged system of material, sign, and trace with its own specific and untranslatable kind of meaning.



Sweet Semaphores is on view at Work Gallery in Brooklyn through October 6.  An opening reception will be held Friday September 5, 7pm.
