Join Abel Contemporary Gallery in Conversation with artist Skyler Simpson regarding her latest solo show, Limescale. The talk is free and open to the public. Skyler Simpson - Limescale Limescale examines personal mythology and the home as a fraught refuge. The narra-tive pulls from Simpson’s Midwestern upbringing and confronts socialized domestic ide-als. Like playing dress-up as a child, the figures adhere to a strange, heightened version of decorum. The vignettes are stylish but acidic; they explore the ways the artist has been conditioned to perform gender even in her private home. Simultaneously, the paintings reveal a mystical subplot. The scenes flit between familiari-ty and fantasy, connecting mundane rituals to a cosmic psychodrama. In this work, Simpson wrestles with hope and spirituality amidst patriarchal power structures.
