What do you see in these oysters 🦪
Fawn Rogers is a LA based contemporary multidisciplinary artist, whose practice explores environmental consciousness, social critique, and poetic symbolism.

In Harmony Oyster and Oyster for Chet Baker, Rogers transforms a modest marine organism into a potent symbol. The oyster, rendered in oil on canvas with delicate brushwork and luminous textures, occupies the canvas with quiet reverence. It is neither purely realistic nor fully abstract, but a visual meditation on balance between softness and hardness, concealment and revelation, life and endurance.

Ebony G. Patterson (b. 1981, Jamaica; based in Chicago) transforms ornament, pattern, and layered materials into meditations on race, visibility, violence, and transformation—especially within Black and q***r experiences.

In …BENT… AND RIPPLED…, roaches and butterflies scatter across torn paper and printed florals, forming a tapestry both seductive and unsettling. The insects are not decoration, but memorials—marking lives overlooked, erased, or discarded. In conversation with Damien Hirst’s butterfly works, Patterson reflects on the fleeting nature of time and the cycle of life.

Part of her ongoing “garden” series, these imagined spaces merge beauty with violence, turning ornament into a language of grief and resistance. With theatrical scale and poetic force, Patterson offers a meditation on survival and the quiet, complicated power of being seen.

“While the work originates from an endless digital realm, my decision to ‘save as’ finalizes the painting and gives it a unique place in the ‘real world’ forever. I have a deep love of physical things and physical spaces.” Petra Cortright transforms the timeless tradition of landscape painting through the lens of the digital age. Sourcing imagery online instead of painting en plein air, she reimagines nature with the tools and textures of the internet, before “saving” her works into bold, tangible pieces on aluminum. What begins in an endless digital realm finds its forever home in the physical world.

From “Mother Nature in the Bardo”: Alexander Calder’s Black Leafed Flowers (1972).

Alexander Calder, celebrated for his invention of the mobile, he also created a substantial body of paintings and works on paper.

In Black Leafed Flowers, Calder uses his classic primary colors — red, black, blue — and organic playful forms echoing the shapes in his mobiles and stabiles. Here, the floral motif blooms in stark silhouette, animated by the artist’s signature hand: playful yet precise, grounded yet floating.

This piece was featured in “Mother Nature in the Bardo,” an art exhibition and book created by in collaboration with ’s , exploring the convergence of art, culture, the environment, and spirituality.

On view until Wednesday: Jean Dubuffet in Mother Nature in the Bardo at through April 30.

“L’homme à la toque” (1956) is one of many works from the exhibition in which artists breathe new life into waste, debris, or recycled material, transforming them into art objects. Dubuffet used an impasto thickened by natural materials such as sand, tar and straw, and used elements of collage by recycling different discarded papers and other ephemera.

Mother Nature in the Bardo is an art exhibition and book created by in collaboration with ’s that explores the convergence of art, culture, the environment, and spirituality. The exhibition is a viewing and selling show, with a portion of the proceeds donated to environmental organizations. With over 70 works spanning the last 250 years, the exhibition examines how artists address nature through their practice, and the ways in which art, social themes, and culture impact and influence each other.

Wishing everyone a very happy Earth Day with Doug Aitken’s “Earth Plane” (2015), on view in Mother Nature in the Bardo, an exhibition honoring and exploring the environment. This work is on view at through April 30. Aitken is a contemporary multimedia artist known for his bold sculptures and works that explore the relationship between evolution and ecology. Aitken often creates “living artworks,” that combine nature and technology, building installations that evolve through both environmental and artistic intervention. “Earth Plane” is a sprawling sculpture layered with a luminous image of a quarry. The deep, ancient beauty of exposed stone — shaped by millions of years of geological activity — is juxtaposed with the small-scale machinery poised to extract it. The piece offers a powerful meditation on the complex relationships between humanity and the planet’s resources.
