Range Life by Gregory Thrasher
Gregory Thrasher is a Mexican-American artist born and raised in the border town of El Paso, Texas. He lives and works between Brooklyn, NY, and rural Northwest Connecticut. Influenced by his ever-changing environments, the tableaus within these landscapes scrutinize the anxieties between our natural environment, industry, and Empire. His work is sardonic, without being cynical. One might feel disoriented or entranced when viewing his paintings as nothing is static; everything is in motion. The intention is to agitate the viewer, not as an infliction, but as an invitation: to help people access the psychic through the visceral and achieve gnosis through mania.
Range Life is on view through May 11th. For more information, email hitere@peggymercury.com or DM us on Instagram @itspeggmercury
