Luck or Else presents new paintings by Sam Jablon that disorient as much as they captivate. Jablon’s practice fuses text and paint into layered, heavily revised compositions where erasure is as present as mark-making, and the meaning of letters slides into abstraction. Color destabilizes language. Words structure the canvas like scaffolding. The result is deliberately unresolved, chaotic yet controlled, humorous yet searching, abstract yet insistently alive.
