Andra Samelson, Jalü #1, archival pigment print, Ed. 4/5, Rainbow reflections

2022

About the Item

Rainbow Light can manifest anywhere and anytime, representing ominscience and it can dissolve instantly, representing impermanence. It is without shadow and represents awareness without obscurations. In Jalü, which means rainbow in Tibetan, colors are ready made, displaying themselves unobstructively in an ever-changing dance of ephemeral iridescence. Samelson's capture of this color dance on her ceilings and walls in her photographs are available as archival digital prints, in editions of 5, reproduced both on paper and on canvas. Andra Samelson is a multi-media artist whose work explores the relationship of microcosm and macrocosm, the celestial and terrestrial.  Originally from Denver, Colorado, Samelson currently lives and works in both New York City and Delhi, NY. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Sarah Lawrence College and is a recipient of fellowships from the New York Foundation for the Arts, the Corporation of Yaddo, and the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. Samelson’s work has been exhibited extensively in galleries and museums throughout the United States and Europe and her public artwork, commissioned by New Jersey Transit, is permanently on view at the Hudson Bergen Light Rail’s Second Street Station in Hoboken, NJ.   She has been a visiting artist at the University of Virginia and the ceramics factory Ditta Grazia Majoliche Artistiche in Deruta, Italy and she has given talks about her work at NYU, Pratt Art Institute, PBS and Artists Talk on Art. Her work has been reproduced and reviewed in the New York Times, Art Forum, New York Arts, New American Painting and elsewhere, and is represented in several private and public collections including the Rubin Museum of Art, the Library of Congress, Chase Manhattan Bank, Dow Jones, and the Loyola University Museum of Art. Most recently the 9/11 Memorial Museum acquired two of her large scale paintings for their permanent collection. J

  • The Kitchen Drawer - An overwhelming source of detritus... everyday objects
    Located in London, GB
    The Kitchen Drawer Simply an overwhelming source of detritus... 'Detritus' series was born from the twin frustrations of lockdown halting all planned projects, yet litter still somehow being dropped in abundance on my street. With no idea of the final output, or indeed the hygiene implications, I started to collect, scan, and record what I found. When I realised these colourful misshapen objects could be turned into something beautiful, the frustrations left me and I began looking for other sources of Detritus. These collages gave me purpose during the pandemic and allowed me to grow something beautiful from a place of frustration. My aim is to simply give viewers of the work a fleeting moment of calm. Unable to shoot anything, I’ve been making collections of things I find on the ground and scanning them to create composite images of otherwise ignored or discarded objects." - George McLeod...
