Galerie Marguo is pleased to present ‘Indigo Skyline,’ a new body of work by New York based artist Amanda Baldwin. Baldwin’s first solo exhibition in Europe continues her investigation into the contemporary roles of landscape and still life painting.
Opening 11 March at Galerie Marguo’s Paris location, ‘Indigo Skyline’ expands on Baldwin’s interest in breaking down the familiar by presenting playful worlds where uncertainty works itself into concrete forms and the organic and inorganic produce eerily similar rhythms and patterns. By striking a balance between disintegration and recognition, Baldwin imbues new identities with the familiar. The artist seeks geometric order and reason as she explores mathematical patterns and their relationship to natural phenomena.

Indigo Skyline, 2020Amanda Baldwin approaches the objects in her work, from mountains to vases to melons with the intent to morph them into abstracted facsimiles of themselves; mountains become triangles, flower petals become explosions of pattern, and trees can find themselves contorting into a cluster of indigo spheres.

About the artist
Amanda Baldwin was born in Seattle, WA in 1984 and currently lives and works in Queens, NY.
Working with traditional modes of depiction, such as landscape painting and still life, Amanda Baldwin starts by separating and considering each individual element within a composition. She approaches these objects, from vases to mountains to melons and their shifted palettes with the intent to morph them into some kind of abstracted facsimile of themselves. By straddling representation and abstraction within each piece she breaks down the familiar and presents playful worlds where uncertainty works itself into concrete forms.
