Halsey McKay Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of paintings by Lucy Mink at the gallery’s Greenpoint, Brooklyn location. Mink’s compositions occupy a liminal space between abstraction and landscape. This transitional or non-place is expressed within her paintings through the juxtaposition of flat, geometric forms with more organic masses achieved through a range of brushwork and varied paint applications. The seven works on view integrate allusions to natural space into a complex plane mapped by an almost perceptible grid flickering in and out of view. It is a cartographic gesture: collapsing the map and the territory, reflecting the artist’s desire to distribute her attention across the various sensory inputs of eye, mind, and hand. Mink builds surfaces that feel both structurally deliberate and fluidly responsive. By layering and scraping back paint over time, she allows submerged marks and hues to surface, creating compositions that showcase her signature ability to balance dense chromatic play with quiet, contemplative rhythm.
Lucy Mink (b.1968) lives and and works in Contoocook, NH. Mink’s work has been included in numerous group and solo exhibitions including Big Town Gallery, Rochester, VT; McGowan Fine Art in Concord, NH; Jaffe-Freide Gallery at Dartmouth College; Hoffman LaChance Contemporary, St. Louis, MO; Geoffrey Young Gallery, Great Barrington, MA; Outlet Fine Art, Brooklyn NY; Barney Savage Gallery in NYC; LABspace Gallery, Hillsdale NY; and Kishka Gallery in White River Junction, VT. She is the recipient of a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant and has been an Artist in Residence at Dartmouth College. Mink received her MFA from Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and her BFA from Savannah College of Art and Design.
