Anastasia Faiella

Anastasia’s work is informed by her earlier performance art, as it investigates the role of the body in mark making. How might repetition, and extended gestures, become legible? How might repletion, or the body interrupt access to words? In her new paintings, letters across a canvas invite, but refuse reading. Her gestures with translucent and opaque paint render the difficulty of accessing language: the viewer wants to read through, to know or understand, but are instead kept at a distance.
