Field Projects is pleased to announce Sliding Doors, a pop-up exhibition featuring the work of Kelli Thompson and Dan Angeli. 

Angeli and Thompson each employ individualized painting styles as language to describe and explore a synthetic reality. While Angeli’s work reimagines disasters through a merger of gesture and industrial forms, Thompson’s depictions overload the senses with moments of exaggerated detail and bright artificial color, rendering parts of the figure, which connect the work to the human experience.

In her most recent body of work, Thompson has utilized hands and arms to incorporate the body while also pointing to the absence of body inside imagined worlds. Hyperbolic color planes and tactile quotidian objects are used as props to enhance color interaction and hint at the mundane within an overblown and histrionic constructed composition.
