> DESCRIPTION

We are pleased to present Megan Williams in her third solo exhibition at the Carl Berg Gallery. Williams continues to search out the roiling and idiosyncratic images she is known for, with charcoal and pigment on canvas, paper and objects. The exhibition will feature a mixture of paintings, works on paper as well as the first installation she has made in several years.

Williams continues to create the volatile narratives she has become so familiar for, but in this exhibition she has also integrated this movement into an installational work. This new piece includes both drawing and sculptural elements that are combined to form a free flowing artwork that explodes into the space of the viewer.

Williams' work over the last few years has tapered from its very aggressive stance to a more melancholic and perhaps introspective approach. In this exhibition Williams has combined elements of her earlier more aggressive style with her more current contemplative approach providing for a dynamic interaction.
