Vertigo

March 6 - March 10, 2020

Ground Floor Gallery

Brooklyn, New York

Ground Floor Gallery is pleased to kick off Women's History Month with our Young Artist-in-Residence, Anna Friemoth, and her solo project, "Vertigo:" a striking photography series depicting painterly, abstracted self-portraits.

Artist Statement About the Work:
Vertigo is a series of self-portraits that stretches the pictorial image into an abstraction of its form. It's an experiment with light and color, blended with circular shapes and distortions; it's a landscape of my mind, a vision of what I see when my eyes are closed, a portal into a different reality. The portraits evoke a cosmic plane, inviting the viewer to imagine what lies on the other side. Vertigo is an inverse of reality. It is both familiar and surreal.
