Acquired from Turn Gallery and the artist in 2021.
The work of New Orleans-born, Brooklyn-based artist Mason Saltarrelli navigates connections between spirits and objects by utilizing various found and invented roaming symbols. His abstracted narratives are rendered through a meditative inspiration creating a direct and emotional experience on each canvas. Saltarrelli paints and draws expressively — his intuition producing open-ended, intersecting motifs that invite exploration from the viewer. Reducing his marks down to the essential, Saltarrelli’s canvases transform inanimate, human and animal beings into playful subjects in an ever-evolving examination of shape and color.
