Erika Stearly is convinced that contemporary realities are complex enough to sustain multiple approaches to painting. As a result, she integrates representational image-making with abstraction’s emphasis on materiality and mark-making in her interior paintings to depict the clutter of household objects. The imagery in her paintings balance an impulse to faithfully render the objects against the emphasis on the hand of the artist.
