MARQUEE PROJECTS is thrilled to return from our two-month winter break and begin our 2022 season with a group exhibition titled Mere Reflection featuring paintings by Mary Bucci McCoy, Debra Ramsay and Jon Rollins.
A reception for the artists will be held on Saturday, March 19, from 5 - 7pm.
The contemplative artists assembled in Mere Reflection invite us to take a break from turmoil and consider moments of quiet reflection. Their pensive, subtle use of materials and a shared minimal, essentialized approach to painting evoke solitude, intimate discovery, and philosophic calm. Mary Bucci McCoy creates intimate, poetic spaces on panel, layering acrylic paint with iridescent pigment and geological elements (marble dust, gneiss) into mirror-like surfaces that continually morph in relation to the viewer’s position and shifting available light. Debra Ramsey similarly explores translucency, light, and the viewer’s ever-changing perception by working with deeply evocative color and stained cast acrylic panel, creating lyrical moments in a suspended state of “undoneness.” And Jon Rollins makes equally introspective paintings that ponder time and the transitory by gently collaging disparate materials gathered over years of art-making, reevaluating the possibilities contained in “not-yets”: doodles, notes, experiments, tape, work-table coverings, and previously abandoned projects.
