Sasha Gordon: Hands Of Others

In Sasha Gordon’s “Hands Of Others,” the artist has employed a suite of new paintings to face the discomfort of examining oneself.

May 7, 2022 - June 25, 2022

In Sasha Gordon’s “Hands Of Others,” the artist has employed a suite of new paintings featuring doppelgängers of herself as a means of facing the uncomfortable feelings that often come with examining one’s own image and actions. To the effect of a lucid dream or an alternate reality, different variations of Gordon’s own persona have been composed from the painter’s unique style—a blend of realistic and caricaturistic features—depicted in surreal scenarios, like floating nude in a canoe or existing atop an unidentifiable landscape. Concerned with ideas of internal conflicts and the psychology that accompanies cultural representation, the new works are especially captivating for Gordon’s use of color, which sees unlikely hues replacing the natural skin tones of her many personas.

“Hands of Others” will be open at Jeffrey Deitch's Grand Street gallery through June 25.
