Liminal Orbits

Carrie McGee’s solo exhibition, Liminal Orbits, continues her exploration of creating suspended works inspired by process, improvisation, and color.

Within her art making, McGee employs alternative ways of applying pigments and other materials to transparent acrylic panels. In addition to rust imprints and pigment evaporations, paint pours are utilized – much like wet-in-wet watercolor techniques – resulting in a palpable materiality.

Her practice radiates meditative calm, and in this latest series, circles, ellipses, and spheres join her trademark grids, evoking celestial bodies and their orbits. Interconnected elements create thresholds of movement and stillness with cycles that never fully close.

 Liminal Orbits suggests not only cosmic rhythms, but also inner states of transition, reflection, and permeability — where boundaries blur and meaning emerges in the in-between.

On This Ground installed at Music City Center

It was an exciting April 1 as we installed On This Ground at Nashville’s dramatic new Music City Center. The 15 foot wide suspended sculpture has been in the works since last summer, drawing inspiration from the construction process itself. Metal objects salvaged from the site were used to create various rust imprints, while images abstracted from aerial photography were also layered into the work.

Aerial images of the building’s foundation taken in May 2010, just after Nashville was flooded, are unexpectedly beautiful……as is a dreamy image of structural scaffolding.

We’ll be excited to see the many acquired and commissioned artworks forming Music City Center’s collection when the doors open in May!
