LA-based Kate Spencer Stewart’s abstract paintings vibrate with energy. Many appear as modulated surfaces of paint that don’t so much depict nature, as conjure its movement, light, and ephemeral presence. Her compositions are carefully built up as layers of color hovering in space, and her process attests to the ongoing emotive potential of abstract painting. Stewart’s works have been exhibited at Park View/Paul Soto, Los Angeles; Maison de Rendez-Vous, Brussels; Misako & Rosen, Tokyo; Piktogram, Warsaw; The Gallery @ Michael’s Restaurant, Los Angeles; The Gallery @ Le Hangar Restaurant, Paris; Redling Fine Art, Los Angeles; Roberts & Tilton, Los Angeles; and 356 Mission Road, Los Angeles, among others.
