PICNIC AT SUNSET
Ashley Norwood Cooper
March 4 – April 24th, 2021
With PICNIC AT SUNSET Ashley Norwood Cooper looks at the edge of the wood as a liminal space of freedom and danger – as life itself has shown to be in this past year – all through this heroic and sometimes humorous lens of the ordinary.Â

FEATURED WORKS
“I Will Die In The Tall Grass With My Headphones On” is a painting about my own death. In this painting there are lots of insects. My dog is trying to defend my body from the vulture, but the cat just walks away from a lost cause. My Buddhist teacher told me to contemplate impermanence and this painting is my contemplation.”
– Ashley Norwood Cooper
