Bortolami is pleased to present Drawings and Paintings, an exhibition of new work by Caitlin Keogh in The Upstairs. For her fifth solo exhibition with the gallery, Keogh expands upon existing typologies in her practice, finding form and composition through repetition and direct observation. Drawings made en plein air and paintings produced from these sketches act as an evolving record of Keogh’s perceptual experiences, cultivating a sense of precision and immediacy that belie their quietude. Art historical imagery rests atop and within pictorial illusions of a woven field in a new group of paintings that explore the tensions inherent in reproduction.
