Mary DeVincentis: "Like a Star at Dawn" was recently reviewed - thank you @chun.park.7 and FAD Magazine!

Chunbum Park writes:

"Mary DeVincentis’s solo exhibition at Freight + Volume, Like a Star at Dawn, speaks to the fleeting visibility of a star about to fade into the approaching morning sky. A star at dawn is a near-impossible miracle, made possible by the limits of physics, the balance between opposing forces, and opportune timing. On the one hand, the star is found and rising. On the other, the increasing number of photons enveloping the sky threatens to erase it from the view of those admiring it.

The “star at dawn” is, in fact, part of the famous closing gatha, or verse, of the Mahayana Buddhist scripture known as the Diamond Sutra. It speaks of the impermanence of all things and the illusion of form that makes the world appear “real,” when in fact it is constantly changing, evolving, and disappearing.

Perhaps that is the contradiction — or irony — of painting: to slow down this change and make permanent the impermanent phenomena, dreams, and memories."

Mary DeVincentis employs a deeply personal iconography to explore the psychological and existential dimensions of being. Creating visual narratives which are multidimensional in character, her paintings depict people, animals and nature, emphasizing their equal presence and metaphysical dimensions. Her most recent solo exhibitions include Know Your Garden at Tappeto Volante Projects in 2025, Circle Game at Andrea Festa Fine Art in 2024, and Wild Awake at Freight+Volume in 2023. DeVincentis earned her BFA from Maryland Institute College of Art and a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Printmaking from St. Martin's College of Art in London, UK. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and is represented in numerous public and private collections. She lives in Brooklyn, NY.

That’s a wrap for ‘On My Mind’. I loved this week, it was definitely a more challenging collection to put together, but so much great work! Thanks for being here, everyone! 😘✌️❤️

Mary DeVincentis
"When All is Said and Done" (2026)

The exhibition "Like a Star at Dawn" takes its title from a metaphor in the Diamond Sutra, a Buddhist text with a profound historical predilection for waking the mind to contemplate the transient existence that all life is subject to. This exhibition currently presents a series of new works, as well as some made in the last two years, where people and nature, light and dark, temporality and eternity all meet. Dawn being the point between night and morning, and a gesture towards the circularity of time - a frame of meditative being in the world.

on view through October 17
