The combinations of marks, colors, and atmospheric areas on the canvas create paintings, which, for the artist, record a "never ending search to make sense of the world. The work of Connecticut artist Janice La Motta will be on display in the TDP Gallery at Five Points Gallery. La Motta's exhibition, "Chandeliers & Candelabrum" premiers a selection of drawings and paintings from this new series. According to the artist, in this body of work, she is "interested in the associative qualities of light and the artisanal ways to contain and deliver it." Small works on paper in ink, pencil and chine colle serve as studies for the examination of various chandelier armatures and take on a wide-ranging approach to the forms. In an accompanying group of paintings the artist explores the qualities of light, and the deeper, underlying reference to memory.
