Reception: October 18, 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
535 W 22nd St
Frederieke Taylor Gallery presents new paintings and works on paper of vibrantly colored interiors by
Olive Ayhens, in her first solo show with the gallery. Known for her cityscapes with off kilter perspectives, in this new body of work Ayhens explores modern interiors that have the same vertiginous quality. In paintings such as “Computer Lab” and “Genome Lab”, we are confronted with the inner workings of technological environments as total living systems, showing the complexity of overlapping wires, cords, and equipment. Her altered perspectives and layering of imagery, create environments where the boundaries between inside and outside seem to become blurred. Architectural elements in Spanish interiors form visual labyrinths in Ayhens’ paintings and drawings for the viewer to wander through.
Olive Ayhens currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. She was a 2006 recipient of the Guggenheim Award and has received additional awards including the Pollock-Krasner in 2001 and 1998, the Gottlieb Grant in 1996 and numerous residencies including the Marie Walsh Sharpe Space Program and LMCC World Views Residency.
