About the Item: Krieger creates energetic abstractions of the natural world en plein air—drawing from art historical traditions of noted landscape painters, yet consistently pushing the genre forward via contemporary techniques. The artist activates her landscapes with sensuous applications of pigment. She layers bold hues and constructs rhizomatic forms—interrupted by intuitive streaks of spray paint, associated with urbanity and rapidity. Krieger finds greater truth abstracting the scenery before her using a non-naturalistic, ethereal color palette and interweaving constellations of undulating shapes.
About The Artist
The physical forms of these works are grouped into categories such as “Blossoms,” “Husks” and “Shoots.” Their lines and curves are drawn from Krieger’s paintings. Begun during the pandemic, they were made in tandem with her series of paintings entitled “These In-Between Days.” These ceramics are the artist’s first explorations into the medium and are evolutions of her two-dimensional works. Displayed on pedestals and on shelves, Krieger’s sculptures will be an organic and energetic interjection within the Gallery’s unique architecture.
