The treatment of color is the most stunning feature of Myers' work, often reminiscent of the American abstract expressionist Mark Rothko. Each layer is of a different size and dimension and washed with heavenly tones of yellow and green. The color melds with the sculpture's lime surface, and the mixing is so subtle that it becomes a radiant sea of slight differences. Myers says she always works in solitude at her studio at the Dominican Convent in Sparkill. In fact, her sculptures are akin to puzzles.
Every work is made up of shapes that mimic, oppose and respond to each other.
The final pieces remain open and, in a sense, unfinished. Portions of the white lime are untouched, and the compositions allow for pockets of air and empty wall apace, adding yet another physical dimension to the many recessed and elevated layers.
