Description
Margaret Curtis is an artist whose exuberantly painted, multi-layered narrative paintings address power dynamics on both the individual and societal level. Using saturated color and compressed space to highlight the fictional realm in which her narratives unfold—a stage-set terrain of false fronts and facades, awash in anxiety—her large-scale oil paintings that explore everyday flexings of power. Curtis's subject matter is feminist, personal, and political.
