Candamill presents Works by Liza Lacroix, the artist’s first solo show in New York City. Lacroix’s oil on lexan paintings comprise masked and pierrot-reminiscent subjects held floating in stark, centralized compositions. Emphatic and anomalous, the ghostly figures are brought to life through harmonious contrast, delivered by effortless brush strokes and the use of a strict color palette against the charged, gaze-less expressions of a curious cast of characters.
