Karen Gunderson debuts works from two series, Moon and Water, shaped over several decades: the Water paintings grow from her own photographs taken while whale watching on Cape Cod or overlooking the Hudson River behind her studio, while the Moon paintings respond to reports that corporations were considering advertising in space and imagine defending the moon from human greed. Over some forty years Gunderson has built a technique using black pigments and intense brushwork and layering to achieve a three-dimensional effect, and Dark Waves Rising presents the first canvases in which she adds blue pigments to render a radiant, jewel-like ocean.
