RACHELL SUMPTER
Cornucopia
In her first solo exhibition in New York, West Coast painter Rachell Sumpter exhibits a group of gouache and pastel works on paper with narratives that exist somewhere between documentation and myth.
Dwarfed by the environments they populate, her characters -- sometimes masses of them -- intently engage in purposeful activity. Or could it be ritual "When does habit overtake reason" In lush jewel-tones Sumpter presents fables that may or may not have happy endings.
Cendrine Rovini, pinetree, irana, victory o'the people, and 27 other people added this photo to their favorites.
