On view from April 4 to May 25 2024, this show marks the artist’s first solo exhibition in Paris and second solo exhibition with the gallery.
Shannon’s images are continually in a state of becoming. The subjects, though fragmented, are seen stretched across scenes or caught in a moment before movement; shared among them is an air of quiet intensity. The fragmented body remains an active one-made possible through the artist’s uses of collage before translating the image to paint. Rarely depicted in full bodily form, the appendages of each subject are rendered emerging from, or surrendering within an alternate scene which contrasts their present reality. Domestic architectural elements become portals of the artist’s own making, encouraging one to question their relation to the subject: whether former, aspirational, or actual. Regardless, the artist says, “we wouldn’t recognize the future if we saw it.”
