Understory surveys seven decades of paintings by Richard Mayhew, whose color-soaked "mindscapes" present landscape as psychic space that’s neither pure abstraction nor faithful transcription. Mayhew saw his practice as a reclamation of land stolen from his Black, Shinnecock, and Cherokee-Lumbee ancestors, challenging landscape painting as a genre long complicit in American colonialism. In his work, nature is always present as a witness to history. But it is no one's property.
