About the artist:
Ana Neifeld draws from a wide range of traditions, including medieval illuminated manuscripts, Rembrandt, American self-taught artists, and German Expressionism, approaching painting as a form of inquiry. Her work merges observation, imagination, and narrative, bending form to convey a felt, multidimensional experience. She is drawn to moments that are ordinary yet verge on the otherworldly, using painting to hold complexity and the ineffable with subtlety and care.

Specs:
Like There Was a Door depicts a doorway beyond a garden that has grown wild, evoking the mysterious quality of doors in abandoned buildings that seem to lead nowhere. Neifeld imagines these doors as portals to other worlds, or as openings into spaces that might exist in another dimension. The work explores the tension between the flatness of the painted surface and the suggestion of depth beyond it, inviting viewers to consider what might lie past the door if it could be opened.More
