Lia Halloran: Night Watch expands upon themes of perception and time—exploring the passing of time over various scales informed by the imagery of star trails, the changing of seasons, and the Earth's orbit around the sun. Halloran’s paintings create a visual dialogue between the mechanical and the natural, from the cyclical nature of the seasons and, the gradual transformation of landscapes, using colors and textures to evoke the seasonal change. Referencing the iconic Device works of Jasper Johns, her new series investigates how mechanized machines and tools symbolize the passage of time.
