Chicago artist Laura Berger presents a new suite of monumental paintings exploring themes of communion and interdependence. Her signature minimal, nude figures are depicted merging with natural elements like waves, flowers, and clouds, rendered in varying states of translucence to symbolize a deep connection with the earth and each other.
The works, some spanning six feet wide, will be exhibited at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery in West Palm Beach from April 17 to May 23. This exhibition is significant as it marks a continued and expansive investigation into spiritual themes, memory, and transformation, positioning Berger's contemplative practice within the contemporary dialogue on human and ecological interconnectedness.
