In her newest paintings, Shara Hughes continues to redefine how the medium records—and generates—the experience of being human. These are, at the same time, some of the most personal and the most far-reaching works she has made to date. Each of the nine large-scale works on view encompasses a world of thought, feeling, self-reflection, and open-ended experimentation. And while thematic connections between the paintings abound, Hughes demonstrates here the fully embodied commitment she brings to each painting as a standalone experience for artist and viewer alike. All the paintings are vertically oriented and sized so that they are at once immersive and intimate.
