Talley Dunn Gallery

For three decades Eva Lundsager has been making abstract paintings structured as an imagined, changing space; paintings that evoke expansiveness and a sense of watchful waiting. Imagery simultaneously specific and indeterminate suggests life forms moving through atmosphere, over a planet’s surface, and deep into solid ground. The paintings are built of varied processes of paint application; layers of pours, drips, glazes, and brushstrokes, and they use complex color, at times seductive, at other times alienating. Painted marks become animated forms, unknown but on the edge of recognition. Lundsager’s work suggests unfamiliar places seen mid-transition as events of indeterminate consequence unfold.
