Nicelle Beauchene Gallery

Presentation Details
Nicelle Beauchene Gallery presents a group show with three rising painters—Jordan Kasey, Quentin James McCaffrey, and Willie Stewart—who share a close focus on uncanny domestic interiors and talismanic objects, evoking notions of memory, absence, and introspection. Kasey tightly crops the statuesque bodies in her bold canvases, enclosing them in spaces that could be read as either intimate or claustrophobic. McCaffrey’s subtly rendered wallpapered rooms, presented in the artist’s gallery debut in December 2022, are devoid of figures yet filled with plants, mirrors, and miniature paintings that seem to stand in for missing personages. Stewart’s contemporary still-lifes compile pseudo mise-en-scènes informed by the conceptual tenets of Pop and the Pictures Generation.
