ROSEMARY COTNOIR: “PATTERN AT PLAY”
September 17–October 31, 2024
Opening Reception • Thursday, September 19, 4:30–6 p.m.
at Pegasus Gallery, 100 Training Hill Road, Middletown, Ct 06457
Rosemary Cotnoir’s evocative landscape paintings emphasize abstract pattern, form and color. Her improvisational process of painting overlays organic applications of acrylic with controlled and descriptive mark making. Cotnoir’s works portray aerial and similarly unexpected perspectives of coastlines, marshes, forests and rivers. These bird’s-eye views provide intriguing map-like vantage points that seem to expand far beyond their open compositions. The play of figure-ground and shifting relationships appears to represent both alien topographies and spatially familiar locations.
