Allison Gildersleeve
ABOUT
Using the genre of landscape as a framework, Allison Gildersleeve's (b. 1970) work addresses the space between clarity and abstraction and the known and unknown. Twisting space and color while closely cropping her dense scenes of nature, Gildersleeve’s paintings refer to the very opposite of nature as a quiet escape. Sources as diverse as botanical designs of 18th-century wallpaper and the jangled patterning of street graffiti can be found amidst the organic forms of her natural settings. Vibrant hues reminiscent of the Nabis and Fauvist painters are bound together by a density of marks, varying from the slash of a palette knife to the delicate contour of a fine brush. Every inch of the canvas bears the history of the marks that built the final image we see, leaving it up to us to unravel the story behind them.
