"I BELONG IN A MUSEUM" Colorado Women's Art Museum, Group Exhibition, Denver, CO 06/2024

"Sarah" oil on canvas

I belong in a museum: Colorado Women Artist Members Museum…Exhibition, Part 1


Another main visual draw of the gallery is what MaKenna refers to as “the shrine”—a corner of stylistically and thematically compatible works. Sitting in the corner on the back wall…

is Rebecca Gabriel’s Sarah, a canvas that also employs a dramatic style reminiscent of Renaissance-era chiaroscuro. The model looks off to the side with her lips slightly parted, as if lost

in thought. She only wears a blue headband, giving the image a sense of timelessness. Where is she looking off to? What is she thinking about? … viewers are drawn to her inner world

through her pensive expression... Sarah demonstrate(s) an interest not only in highlighting the technical skill and quality of work by local women artists, but also in exploring how

women are captured as subjects of art. …the artist… take(s) what might be considered mundane moments, emotions, and relationships and emphasize(s) them as being visually

and thematically significant.


Maggie Sava (she/her) is a writer based in Denver, Colorado. She holds a bachelor’s degree in art history and English, creative writing from the University of Denver and a

master’s degree in contemporary art theory from Goldsmiths, University of London.

"Passage" pencil/mixed media/collage

 "I had the fortune to sketch my mother in the final days of her life. She was a willing and enthusiastic model. Since her passing, I have developed this poignant image, inspired by emotion and vivid memories."

Rebecca Gabriel

Jonah Bornstein What do I sense here? The artist states this drawing was accomplished in her mother's final days. For me, there is a profound concentration. The background reflects a melding with the cosmos beyond her, or perhaps it's the cosmos inside projected outward. In either case it's an amazing reflection on the beauty generating by life near death.


Jacob Bornstein Wow. This peace is ethereal, like the bridge between life and the other side.
 

"The Subject Is War" National Juried Competition

Wiseman Gallery  10/2014-12/2014

Rogue Community College

"The Soldier" - pastel painting 

figures/TheSoldier.JPG

In my piece, “The Soldier,” I have placed a skeleton, lying in a fetal position, within the area of the brain cavity.  The gray convoluted shape of the bones, is simultaneously enclosed and exposed within the confines of the subject’s mind, mirroring the anatomy of the human brain.   The subject is deeply concentrating on eminent mortality with closed eyes. The painting portrays reflection on sacrifice, mortality, and the fragility of life; which defines the human scope of every war.
