CONNECTING THE DOTS
Cindy Shaoul - TBD, 2024
Lilac Gallery New York is pleased to present “Connecting the Dots” an exhibition of works by Cindy Shaoul. A wonderful collection of her latest Dripping Dots, My Heart, and Brides pieces.
Shaoul’s “Dripping Dots” cascade down the canvas with colorful style and grace. The chunky dots are filled with life and set the viewer on a path to the dreamy locations their named after. Inspired by travels, people and the emotions we feel while we are away and bringing back those feelings into a piece and have the colors take you on a journey. This abstract style started more than a decade ago as Shaoul would clean her brushes and leftover paint from her pallet onto a new canvas, soon, the motion of cleaning turned into dots on the canvas. She began connecting the dots with linseed oil and this is how the motif of ‘dripping’ was imprinted. For her, it would become a freeing moment while painting abstractly after going to school and learning the impressionist technique. The experience of discovery with color and emotion in the brushwork became very cathartic, and felt familiar from the times she would collaborate with LA II.
