St. Louis, MO — Monaco is pleased to present Looker featuring St. Louis artist Chloe West. The exhibition opens on Friday, January 3 and runs through Friday, January 31.
Chloe West creates paintings that investigate the body and its relationship to the spaces it inhabits. She paints the surfaces of the everyday, enfleshing material skins. Objects such as windows and linoleum tiles are presented with works that show fragmented views of the body: contrasting materials of banality with moments of intimacy. Together, these works create a nonlinear narrative that explores the subjectivity of the body as it relates to place. The painting process is durational, tender, and engages in deep looking to question the gaze and themes of accessibility.
