Piece description from the artist
The subject of this photograph is the singularity of this rose. There were other roses in the bush, but I chose this one. Partially opened, it suggests potential; the new buds to its left hint at the passage of time. Branches are aligned like a compass: compositional lines that run North to South to East to West with the rose at their center.
Nicole Maynard is an artist working across media: painting, drawing, digital, and games. She received an MFA in Painting with a minor in Printmaking from the University of Pennsylvania and is originally from Boston, Massachusetts. Her work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions throughout the Northeast and Miami. Maynard’s paintings exist at the edge of abstraction and representation, using landscape and imagery such as houses and moving boxes to suggest environments in transition. Her compositions balance structure and spatial illusions, reflecting themes of permanence and impermanence, displacement, and belonging. Architectural ambiguity is conveyed through shifting forms, which play a central role in her process.
