① Artwork:
Grasshopper 5
Part of a series and painted with oil and Flashe on linen, this abstract work is inspired by the journey of a grasshopper.
In her 'Grasshopper' series, the artist responds to the stimuli of Southern California that she sees during walks, which include flowers, cacti and densely variegated neighborhoods illuminated by the Los Angeles sun.
Ariel Dill paints abstractions that include visual occlusions, hiccups and whorls. Bleary shapes spread across her canvases, with moments of movement or focus implied as if her compositions could be entered psychically. Dill’s intuitive process leads with color and pulls from a vocabulary of forms the artist develops during automatic drawing sessions. Her paintings invite the viewer to explore her anthropomorphized imagery and revel in their slippery nature.
