This February, Artereal is excited to present Ashlee Beck’s second solo exhibition with the gallery. Titled Vinegar Bath, the exhibition will showcase a series of new paintings exploring themes of self-discovering, isolation and co-dependency through thick impasto mark making.

“My paintings include self-portraits, figuration, various types of flora, and still-life, and draw on digitally cropped and collaged reference photographs. Inspired by Realism and artists from Lucian Freud to Frida Kahlo, my self-portraits are not intended to be flattering. They aim to depict everyday life: its banality, beauty, and hardships. Through intricate details juxtaposed with loving, performative, and visceral paint strokes, I enable viewers to sense my presence as an artist.”
