simple knots

Jeremy Le Grand

February 7 - March 1, 2026

These paintings are a continuation of Le Grand’s interest in digital image making’s relationship to abstract painting, with a focus on op-art and hand-woven textile patterning. The works retain a flatness specific to digital imaging, a hesitance to gesture and other vestiges of the hand, but when viewed up close, quickly reveal themselves as heavily layered paintings, their density built through a steady repetition of masking and painting, the process creating a space full of subtle frictions and vibrating lines. This process not only provides an indication of time passing, each line and layer a nod to his time spent stretching and cutting and painting and peeling, but also acts as a sort of bait, drawing the viewer in from across the room to investigate its means and methods.
