MORE ABOUT THE ARTISTS :
MURPHY MUNDAY is a Hudson-Valley-based artist who explores the interplay of color and emotion through various mediums, including oil and chalk pastels, acrylic, and watercolor paints, sculpture, paper and any other medium her ideas require. Her work is a celebration of vibrant, moody color and impulsive marks and gestures, with a style that shifts with the changing seasons, moods, and life’s ups and downs. Through her creative process, Murphy invites viewers to immerse themselves in a world of fluid perceptions and feelings, navigating intricate emotional terrains and boundaries. “The works that I create are not just about color and texture, they are about the feelings and memories each hue evokes, the spaces they inhabit, and the stories they tell. Each painting is a visual exploration of the intangible moods and emotions we feel but struggle to articulate.” – Murphy Munday.

Murphy is showing various abstract artworks from two art series she has created over the past three years;
Boundaries : This series delves into the intricate layers of intrapersonal and relational boundaries, uncovering the ethereal spaces they occupy within us. Through a visual exploration of the boundaries – such as between you and me, mother and child, and the nuances of ‘yes’ and ‘no’ – I question and examine where one boundary ends and another begins.

Color Atmospheres : In this series, I use color to explore the intricate emotional terrain. Fields of blues and greens are punctuated by intuitive marks and gestures, accented by subtle borders of contrasting texture or color that add depth and complexity. These paintings serve as gateways to deeper connections, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a world of fluid perceptions and feelings.
