Dusty Boynton’s solo exhibition in the East Gallery features large-scale paintings, works on paper, and structured reliefs. Her work is humorous, aggresive, sad, and joyful, but most of all it is emotive. Packed with personality, the cutout figures exist between carefree childlike drawings and psychosomatic studies. Her portraits balance the line between opposing emotions, causing a visceral response in the viewer.
