Description

Alicia Gibson. Playback Error. 13" x 10", mixed media on archival pigment print. Signed series of 10. $350. Gazing into Alicia Gibson's world is akin to delving into collective consciousness of the adolescent variety; a shared space unified by its freneticism, intimacy, vulnerability, and raw optimism. By working primarily from diaristic impulses, drawing phrases or images from memory and daily life which populate her paintings, drawings, and collages, Gibson taps into the universality of feeling and depth of understanding that define the coming of age experience. Combined with her bleached out 90s color palette and an explosive painting style, Gibson's resulting compositions are elevated nostalgia; self-aware sentiment.
