Navel Gazey, 2022, digital photocollage and oil and acrylic paint on beach towel, chiffon, and sequins, 68” x 52” By Gaby Collins-FernandezOver & UnderAt Minimal Gallery until June 7thReflections are always multiple, partial, recurring. What version of the self exists in the mind, in our memories, in the various shiny surfaces and screens that we see and post our visage? This painting includes two areas of double-sided sequins which are printed on one side, and metallic on the other. One area covers an area corresponding to one frame of eyeglasses; the other covers one in a set of four reflected faces. In the glasses, the print, of a knife, is from the battle scene of Piero della Francesca’s mural the Legend of the True Cross in Arezzo. In the other segment is written the word “Hi.” by @gmercedescf

𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒔 is on view today & tomorrow at Platform Project Space! Come see watercolors by 𝑮𝒂𝒃𝒚 𝑪𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒔-𝑭𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒛 in the exhibition. The artist presents a group of five watercolor drawings, a sliver of the many she made daily over the past year at studios in Mexico City and New York City. Unlike her larger, digitally manipulated work, these pieces are more spontaneous and direct. She states, “Architectural detail, geometry and language are prominent. Really, they are as much writing prompts as drawing prompts. I want these watercolors to feel less like art and more like thoughts.” Don’t miss the chance to see these beauties! 𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒔 closes tomorrow at 6pm.
