Chloe Early Solo Show

Good friend, Chloe Early launched her new solo show a few days ago at the Joshua Liner Gallery in New York and her body of work looks so good in person. They are all painted on aluminium panels and are beautifully detailed.

   

 "As the exhibition title, Feathers and Wax, suggests, the concept of suspension is noble but also naïve and ill fated. Alluding to the Greek myth of Daedalus and Icarus, these materials allowed young Icarus to sore to idealistic heights and flout the sensible cautions of his father. The consequences were tragic. This contrast of dream and reality is given a contemporary retelling in Early’s painting Frontier Firecrackers, where a pair of youths are pictured plummeting through a garland of grapes and roses into a new environment of junkyard tires and cruise missiles."
