 In Spaces, a small, intricately detailed garden scene is framed by monochromatic color blocks and semi-abstract renderings of water surfaces, juxtaposing representation and abstraction, nature and artifice. In its attention to color, light, and loose brushwork, Spaces references American Impressionism but simultaneously points to East Asian philosophies, art forms, and contexts through its depiction of a Tokyo park. 

Acquired in 2024
