Easton, Maryland-based artist Alison Cooley’s abstract work is always rooted in nature, but Perenne, created during her Tappan residency in Los Angeles, offers a slightly more specific perspective. This series takes its name from the term “perennial,” referencing its literal meaning as continuously reoccurring, but also its connection to the organic world — in this case, its juxtaposition with the manmade one: the golden-pink sunsets and the curves of the canyons against the cracked pavement and graffiti.
