Artist Sarah Sze's latest exhibition at Gagosian Beverly Hills offers a focused collection of 13 pieces, including substantial paintings and video installations. Sze masterfully arranges the space to create a holistic experience that unfolds over time, drawing inspiration from contemporary society's overwhelming influx of images and misinformation.
The six large paintings, up to 8x16 ft, are characterized by their chromatic cohesion, featuring colors of dusk and dawn. These works incorporate subtle imagery and jagged lines, creating a sense of constant movement within a contained whole. Sze aims for a perfect tension, where viewers feel perpetually disoriented and then re-oriented.
