Infinite Beachby Kristen Sanders

Dreamsong is pleased to present Infinite Beach, a solo exhibition by Kristen Sanders. In the artist’s new suite of preternatural paintings, the violent cacophony of our present seems to have been washed away by the murmur of migrating sands and lapping seas. Cleaved from the familiar strictures of anthropomorphic time, the artist’s subjects inhabit windswept eternities. Emerging from seemingly incongruous sources – the fossilized shells of long ago extinct bivalves, still lives constructed from latex gloves and prehistoric rocks, a snapshot of a painting by Sanders’ late uncle, who died in a Ukrainian studio fire when she was a child – the works in Infinite Beach are bound together by a common line of inquiry: what remnants survive at the periphery of existence?
