James Kalm is out on a Sunday afternoon art crawl, through the frosty streets of Bushwick, when he traipses into David & Schweitzer and encounters Heather Morgan, and her pup Meeshka. “Heavenly Creatures” is a group of paintings and drawings that presents Morgan’s current concentration on single female figures. These women are isolated from extraneous background elements, and presented as images of emotional and subjective states. Influenced by the expressive power of modern and classic German painting, Morgan has a keen eye for telling detail, and nuanced characterization. The women depicted are as contemporary as this morning, while also referencing history’s great feminine muses and the eccentricities of modernist bohemians.
