Joan Wadleigh Curran is interested in objects that exist on the periphery of our daily experiences. She focuses on moments when vegetation and human material merge, producing visual contradiction. Cropped, pruned, and twisted forms of plant and man-made objects co-exist in her unsettling paintings and drawings. The images explore growth, decay, regeneration, and reclamation.
