Melany Furie ((link)) File

Furie’s debut solo show, Homeward Bound (2007, Brooklyn Museum of Art), presented a series of oil portraits of women rendered in saturated blues and golds. Critics noted the “intimate yet unsettling” treatment of the female gaze (Miller, Art in America , 2008). The exhibition introduced two motifs that would recur: (the painting surface as a metaphor for bodily layers) and fragmented geography (maps, postcards, and stamps embedded within the canvas).

May you, like Melany, always hear the quiet between the ticks and find the stories that linger there. melany furie
