Aubrey Saget: Encounters With the Physical World

August 6, 2009

Aubrey Saget, a playful artist and recent NYU grad with a great sense of color and texture, has recently launched a website featuring many of her pieces.  Aubrey's paintings, works on paper, and sculptures aim to capture life's mundane happenings: a sink filled with dirty dishes, discarded clothing, a cluttered bathroom.  She incorporates thick, textured brushstrokes with a keen use of color. Her work is approachable; images from trips to Disney world, family dinners, and plates loaded with food are intimate yet familiar...

 

She is particularly fond of painting food, including images of french fries, fish, pizza, and bowls of pasta. In these scenes, the movement of Aubrey's heavy strokes allows the piece to speak more about the mood surrounding the scene than the particulars of the food items themselves. A group meal is enlivened with bold colors; birthday cake on a bright red tray is cause for celebration; a sink full of dirty gray dishes blends together, signifying a burdensome wash.  Aubrey paints her world with fun, zeal, and humor. "What is deeply personal," she says, "is ultimately what helps us connect with others."
