Jenny Morgan

In Hours at the Edge, Jenny Morgan depicts women and, for the first time, birds of prey, their forms ebbing in and out of focus against atmospheric fields of color. Produced over the past two years, the exhibition extends Morgan's longstanding investigation of portraiture and the relationship between artist and muse. Working with models whose likenesses she has returned to over many years, Morgan renders figures that seem to exist at the edge of reality, moving between precise realism and diaphanous abstraction; her paintings examine the relationship between the body and consciousness.
