Elizabeth Glaessner's work is currently featured in The Woman Destroyed, on view at P.P.O.W through July 29th. Created using pure pigments dispersed with water, acrylic, and oils with various water-based binders, Glaessner renders imagined scenes that exist in fluid limbo; actions are just as readily interpreted as joyful as they are violent while her figures defiantly withstand characterization of either gender. In Circling, Glaessner's composition recalls art historical references of The Three Graces but thwarts traditional interpretation with the addition of an eerie fourth figure. The darkly dreamlike quality of the piece is enhanced by a saturated landscape that melts into the foreground, figures circling endlessly in a clouded embrace.
