Jeanette Pasin Sloan - New Paintings

June 4 - July 9, 2022

Jeanette Pasin Sloan's paintings, drawings, and prints display technical feats of virtuosity. Pasin Sloan works primarily in still lifes, which she describes as, “between realism and abstraction, knowing and unknowing, and order and disorder.” Her work’s main focus is not the objects that she paints, but the reflections in the objects. These reflections take on their own life, subverting both genre and style, infusing the traditional genre of still life painting with highly abstract tendencies. Closely-cropped, and set in carefully manipulated compositions, the subject matter of Pasin Sloan's work takes second stage to its formal intensity. Pasin Sloan’s work seeks to depict a world of harmony and order, despite the knowledge of chaos.
