DESCRIPTION

Photoreproduction print on heavyweight off-white paper | 2022

This is Gabrielle Teschner’s first print offering of her “Sculpture-That-Are-Flat” at Tappan. The collection explores the artist’s continued fascination with edges and three dimensionality. Teschner’s editions on paper highlight the intricacies and imperfections of her original materials; creases, folds, tears, threads and frayed edges are purposefully left visible to create a sense of delicate tension.

“To Enter Kindly Havens” draws on Teschner’s interests in both the lush palette of the tropics and the polychromatic palette of Greco-Roman history, linking the symbols of classical architecture to their botanical origins. Whether columns or capitals, pedestals or a single stair, the sculptures isolate elements used in the building of larger structures.

The original works are constructed of individual ink-painted planes of cotton muslin — compositions whose lines are seams, whose shapes are defined by confrontations of color.

“All of this for me, all of the references to architecture and math and humidity, are a way to talk about being in the world. An affirmation of existence or the inability to do so.”
