Laura Ball: The Last Lap
In this exhibit, Laura Ball pushes forward from her previous series, War Games, and continues to explore the psychology of role-playing and game theory. In these paintings the material of the paint reflects the internal narratives of her Modern Day Fairy Tales. It challenges and sticks to the figures, binds them, then lightens and lets go, dissolving, moving through space. It flows, explodes, settles and dissipates, playing with the surface and depth of the canvas while playing along with the emotions of the figures, expanding the content of the work beyond that of a simple linear narrative.
