Donald Moffett presents a textured, abstract landscape directly inspired by global climate change. Using a technique similar to piping cream to decorate a cake, he extrudes thin threads of paint onto the wood panel that suggests erosion and exposed sediment layers. The end result is a volatile terrain that is in a transitional state.

The title indicates “June 8, 2025,” the date when the artist started working on this painting.

“... the problems that we face in relationship to the natural world call for, I would suggest, all of our attention.”

🖼️Lot 060825 (nature cult, flood)

🖌️Donald Moffett
🎨Oil on linen, wood panel support, and steel
🏛️First floor of the museum

See this work tonight! We’re open until 8 pm with half-priced museum admission starting at 5.

See you soon!

𝘏𝘶𝘨𝘰 𝘔𝘤𝘊𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘥: 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘰𝘯 features selections from several ongoing bodies of work composed of materials such as aluminum foil, tar paper, and/or hundreds of pieces of single-use plastic the artist has sourced, hand-cut, and ironed into place.

McCloud’s 𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘯 series, which presents scenes of men whose daily work requires repetitive, physical labor, forms the majority of works in the exhibition. Overall, his paintings examine brief glimpses of daily life in locations as varied as Los Angeles, Morocco, India, and Qatar.

The exhibition presents more than twenty-four paintings created between 2020 and 2026—including several new works making their public debut—that chart the ongoing evolution of McCloud’s inventive artistic practice.

Come see it on view September 26!
