Muriel Guépin Gallery presents Looking In, featuring paintings and mixed media works by Pauline Galiana, Hovey Brock, and Robert Szot. The artists in Looking in create work that implores you to look closer by relinquishing your habits and preconceived ideas.

Layering stickers, fruit tags, and the remnants of her own art-making process, Pauline Galiana creates mixed media collages. Her work is a personal diary comprised of the left-over materials of daily life.

Hovey Brock’s paintings are composed of many layers of transparent washes of intense colors. His goal is for viewers to release the habits that govern the way they look, and to get “lost” in his paintings.

In his paintings, Robert Szot chooses to respond to unanswered questions relevant painters have left untouched in their own work. His study of the history of the medium allows him to create abstract canvases that engage viewers while remaining quietly personal.
