SLOW BURN
Palma Blank, Jenny Zoe Casey, Christopher Dunlap, Nate Ethier and Stacy Fisher
13 Jun - 15 Aug 2025
Each artist engages in a methodical, deliberate process—structures evolve gradually, often through repetition, layering, and reduction. Palma Blank’s hard-edged, optical paintings juxtapose concepts of deep space and flatness, illusion and objecthood, the handmade and the machined. Jenny Zoe Casey’s tactile, material engagements—through domestic activities such as sewing, dyeing, and folding—become the language of her poetic, constructed forms. Christopher Dunlap explores the dynamic relationships between form, pattern, and perception. By layering simple shapes and complex structures, he builds a multiplicity of relationships that create spatial ambiguity and shifting depth. Nate Ethier builds visually regenerative compositions through layers of dense color and symmetry. His works are meditations on time, light, color, and human touch, constructed through rhythmic patterns and layers of hand-painted marks. Stacy Fisher’s work embodies a dynamic interplay between sculpture and painting, blending geometric structure with organic expression. Using oil on shaped wooden supports, her compositions prioritize physicality—enhancing visual impact through edges, shadows, and angles that shape the viewing experience as much as color or mark.
