Claire B. Cotts | Live Q+A | September 17th 2021

Claire B. Cotts’s richly layered abstractions inhabit a space between texture and rhythm. Inspired by forms in nature, much of her work is an exploration of the tension and precarious balance of contradictory elemental forces -heaviness vs weightless buoyancy, contraction vs unfurling, entropy vs order. In Cotts’s newest paintings, forms emerge and recede, float weightlessly and are counterbalanced by the pull and tug of gravity. These paintings attempt to capture a fleeting sensation or a moment in time - summer warmth, spring awakening, and the long winter.
