Sarah Mikenis: New Paintings

Sarah Mikenis: New Paintings is an installation of sculptural paintings that challenge the relationship between the physical and the optical. Mikenis, an emerging artist based in downtown Los Angeles creates striped and patterned compositions that are seemingly draped and gathered over a skeleton of stretcher bars, if the painting itself is a loose garment in zero gravity. Her work brings a Baroque sensibility to geometric abstraction, a balance between the surface and the subliminal. This is her third exhibition with the gallery.
