Graphite on archival inkjet print. Series of 25. 24" x 16". Signed and numbered by the artist en verso. $375. Melissa Brown creates paintings that function as conduits for what is otherworldly about ordinary experience. She collages different painting methods that capture reality at different speeds: one through a camera, one through direct observation, one from memory. As part of her process, Ms. Brown uses methods of divination. For this series of prints, she has conducted 30 separate divinatory readings. Each reading was cataloged at a specific date and time and drawn by hand with graphite on each print.
