Lauriston Avery: Full Moon

Platform Project Space is pleased to present Full Moon, an exhibition of recent works on canvas by Lauriston Avery that expand on his otherworldly body of paintings. Formed from pared-down materials such as construction adhesive and gesso, these works rely on the subtlety of white, muted hues, texture, light and shadow to express ghostly visages that are at once matter of fact and ethereal. Tightly compressed passages interwoven with structural and rhythmic line interplay over scarred psychic fields where super-sensory, celestial-like figures manifest in material substance and recede into abstraction.
