MEIGHAN MORRISON
I am interested in opposites, how they meet and determine each other - black/white, rough/smooth, pain/joy. I paint on linen or paper laid out onto the floor which adds a physicality and spontaneity, often foiling any plan. The large scale of my stretched paintings seek to amplify the relief found in simplification and the basic nature of materials speak to the essential. I paint as a panacea for the exponential convolution that is modern life. Or as rebellion against it. On a good day I manage to do both
Working on the floor using oversized rolls of paper or linen, Meighan creates abstract
compositions that speak to the essential, distilling shapes and colors, balancing opposites and
amplifying simplicity.
