Working within her visual vocabulary—including motifs such as birds, domesticity, travel, mortality, and social constructs of gender—More by Wick showcases the artist’s distinctive approach to composition, described by depth and layered imagery. Her self-determined parameters foster a timelessness in which space, form, and color intermingle openly. Inspired by the current moment in her studio, each painting represents a leap of faith—each created intuitively, revealing itself to her as she created it.
