The past few years have seen a global pandemic and significant, and on-going, political and environmental turmoil. Mia BrownellÕs paintings reflect a longing for the ordinary with an understanding that ordinary may never have existed in the first place. In addition to her series Garden Variety, paintings that re-envision the genre of Still-Life images from both a macro (cultural) and microscopic (genetic) perspective, the artist will also debut a sub-series of paintings entitled Leda and Swan that respond to the erosion of womenÕs rights in American.
