Anne Buckwalter's exhibition, Still Life at Home, features her new gouache works that reflect on the pleasures of rural life and domesticity amid changing seasons. The paintings embrace daily rituals with a striking contrast between serenity and the provocative elements of eroticism. Buckwalter emphasizes normalizing sexuality in a comfortable context, drawing inspiration from her childhood in a home rich with Pennsylvania Dutch craft. Her artistic approach invites viewers to engage with intimate subject matter in an accessible way, igniting thoughtful dialogue around erotic themes in everyday life.
"I see my work as a kind of exercise in making what is boring erotic, and what is erotic boring," says Buckwalter.
In the undistracted stillness, there is the invitation to obsess, to fantasize, to burrow inwards and see how deep you can go.
