Piece description from the artist
2018… a major crossroad in my life. I went to Nepal for meditation, intending to stay there long term; but I got called home, and left after 12 days. We will always return home, because there's much to take care of. This painting represents the answer and the question, the clutter and the clearing.
6 years later I'm faced with a similar fork in the road. This time I will choose the other path and see where it leads.
Winston Chmielinski (b. 1988 in Boston, MA) engages with painting through organic dissolutions and reconstitutions of the figure. Forms forego their contours, suspending Chmielinski's paintings out of narration and into insistence—of paint, of presence, and of perception.
Following a decade of critically acclaimed solo presentations in EU and US, inclusion in the 2013+2017 Venice Biennales, and spotlights at VOLTA NY, The Armory Show NY, Liste, and Positions Berlin, Winston now helms a creative studio in Berlin and is preparing a new body of work, to be released in 2023.
