Chroma at Pt. 2 Gallery
Oakland, California | November 9 - December 14, 2019
Pt. 2 Gallery presents Chroma, a solo exhibition of painting and sculpture by Kelly Ording.
Through both process and subject, the artist explores the tension between seemingly opposite concepts - intuition and intention, representation and abstraction, surrender and control. By layering painted geometric patterns (often in saturated colors), over organic shapes that stem from her process of hand-dying canvas and paper surfaces, Ording plays with our natural propensity to seek the familiar in the abstract. Whether viewing the mathematical repetition of her abstract works or her atmospheric imagined landscapes, it is easy to get lost in Ording’s dizzying compositions and grounding mastery of color.
