Abstract:
The exhibition presents new works, all from the past year, among them a group of monumental paintings alongside drawings in ink on paper, prints, tri-dimensional objects and a sculptural installation composed of 15 pumpkins cast in aluminum. Ignorant Field, the exhibition's central image, views the painting surface as a material "field" space, and entails the ethos of physical labor that accompanies Poliakine's artistic work and dictates many of her actions. Using her characteristic "sequential line," Poliakine develops motives of cyclamens (wilted), pumpkins, dead birds, self-portrait and personal homages to old masters. Poliakine draws, paints, coils paint tubes and combines various media to crossbreed painting and sculpture.
