In this new body of work, Anthony Chase is investigating surface, texture and the materiality of his chosen medium, Italian lime plaster. Each work will often go through several incarnations as he applies and removes plaster, re-working and re-ordering elements until the compositions are fully realized. He has taken inspiration from antiquated, weathered walls encountered on trips around the world and celestial bodies in a night sky, seeking to interpret and re-imagine by troweling, scraping and sanding the surface. By incorporating powder pigments and aggregates of marble chip, he introduces color and sheen to his compositions. His use of form includes both abstract shapes and representational figures, sometimes both within the same painting.
