Pamela Jorden @ Samuel Freeman Gallery

In recent work, she has reexamined, explored and referenced the color theory and visual vocabularies of early 20th century abstraction, in particular the orphic cubism of Robert Delaunay, Sonia Delaunay-Terk, and František Kupka. 









"Pamela Jorden’s energetic, fractured paintings combine diverse forms, patterns, and colors taken from daily experience and conveyed through an idiosyncratic engagement with abstraction.  In recent work, she has reexamined, explored and referenced the color theory and visual vocabularies of early 20th century abstraction, in particular the orphic cubism of Robert Delaunay, Sonia Delaunay-Terk, and František Kupka.  Jorden’s new works begin with geometrically structured canvases of stained raw linen, and employ hot and vibrant colors; frenetic, contrasting brushstrokes; and alternating matte to iridescent finishes to a particularly personal effect — simultaneously structural and atmospherically charged.  Combining the visual density of her surroundings with these subtle optical effects, Jorden’s work suggests the changing effects of light and shifting perspectives, and the transience of visual experience."
