Perenne 3500 (diptych)
DESCRIPTION
Vinyl, plastic, acrylic ink, pencil, pen on canvas | 2021
Alison Cooley’s ongoing “Perenne” series originated during her Tappan Residency in March 2020. The series title nods to the word perennial, describing something enduring or continually recurring. Taking aesthetic cues from graffiti, cracked pavement, bending freeways, and twisted tree roots, Cooley’s works illustrate patterns from urban life and the natural world. Using vinyl, acrylic ink, and pen, Cooley abstractly interprets these natural and manmade elements, resulting in forms that are simultaneously harmonic and tense.
