SUMMARY:Shifting Frames by Mariah Gugel
DESCRIPTION:Shifting Frames explores the fluidity of perception\, where moments slip between clarity and obscurity\, presence and disappearance. Figures\, botanicals\, and landscapes appear as if glimpsed in passing—fragmented\, refracted\, and reassembled through changing vantage points. \nLight and shadow act as shifting thresholds\, creating transparencies and overlays that blur the distinction between inside and outside\, figure and ground\, memory and immediacy. Repetition of form suggests rhythm and return\, while the instability of perspective unsettles the eye\, asking the viewer to pause in the ambiguity of what is seen. \nThese paintings dwell in the spaces between frames—the gaps where meaning flickers and dissolves\, where the ordinary is transformed into something unfamiliar. In this unsettled terrain\, stillness coexists with movement\, and what emerges is less a fixed narrative than an unfolding encounter with perception itself.
