About The Work
In the early Nineties, as a young mother, Michelle Grabner explored backdrops inspired by her home and family environment focusing on domestic abstraction and repetition. In these early paintings she depicted recognizable patterns including crochet and gingham both of which have a vernacular quality, but at the same time are abstract. This work is one of the four prints in Crochet Ripple, a series where she revisits domestic backdrops. Materiality is extremely important to Grabner–in her paintings, she has used enamel and flocking in her exploration of surfaces. Here, she selected the technique of lithography and the results are luminous, shimmering, abstract images.
