Grey View is Rebecca Rivas-Rogers’ exuberant love letter to the color gray, a record of the abstractions, colors and textures found in America’s constructed spaces and a snapshot of the artist’s creative process.
Initially a landscape painter, Rebecca Rivas Rogers’ work is indebted to the history of painting and her training in graphic design. As a Northern Irish woman living in the United States, Rivas Rogers brings an outsider’s perspective to the provisional spaces that dominate the contemporary American landscape: through Rivas Rogers’ eyes, parking lots, construction zones, chain link fencing and oil stains all become lessons in aesthetics and meditations on the color gray.
