Lover’s Knot, Wendell Gladstone’s third solo exhibition at Nazarian / Curcio, explores intimacy as a powerful force, where figures entwine like cords, symbolizing love's strength and complexity. Architectural elements merge with bodies, reflecting emotional connections, while vines serve as symbolic threads. Gladstone's surreal compositions, featuring motifs like seahorses and glowing hearths, present love as both a tangible and mystical force, where relationships become structures and emotions take form.
