🎨 “Fondage” doesn’t shy away from the frustrating and funny truths of trying to put down roots. | ✍️ Annette LePique
In the exhibition notes for “Fondage,” currently up at Purple Window Gallery, an epigraph from the bookcompares the work of human relationships to the work of gardening. While that particular metaphor has long made the rounds within the realm of popular psychology, it is useful to keep in mind when viewing “Fondage.
“Fondage: Fondness, Bondage, Foliage, and Found Laying Around” brings together the work of Claire Burke Dain and Amy Shelton. Here Burke Dain’s intertwined graphic lines and abstracted, color-saturated figures are in dialogue with Shelton’s photographic still lifes of the blurry, porous boundaries between the natural and artificial.
From the pun of the show’s title to works like Burke Dain’s “Babysit” and Shelton’s “Carried Away,” “Fondage” doesn’t shy away from the frustrating and funny truths of trying to put down roots.
