Just five large paintings on paper and three on canvas make for a small, elegant presentation that invites extended contemplation. As usual, it’s one subject per work: a bat, a bottle, a hat, a compass, an anchor. Cropped in two long vertical canvases and resting at the base, the anchors are silhouetted white on black and black on white, their edges, even the curved-looking ones, compounded of straight lines. Most dreamy is the compass, a barely recognizable glint in a dark ground, in dialogue with a small, blurry form above, perhaps a star in the night sky.
