Conversation | Painting as Distillation: Jill Mulleady and Avery Singer

On the occasion of Jill Mulleady’s exhibition Fight-or-Flight, please join Mulleady, artist Avery Singer and SI Curator Laura McLean-Ferris to discuss the two artists’ practices. The conversation will take as a starting point the concept of distillation in order to explore painting that includes a variety of compositional layerings and art historical motifs to depict contemporary life. The artists will discuss their own processes and how they approach each other’s work as painters.
