california-born, texas-based artist #nataliewadlington has garnered recognition for her richly colored figurative paintings that are heavily based on storytelling. her characters are wide-eyed with wonderment and fear as they navigate various environments and encounters. she views the interactions presented within her works as metaphors that communicate larger archetypal narratives of love, conflict and misjudgment, specifically in our relationship to nature and animals

on view at #dallascontemporary — ‘for, in your tongue, i cannot fit’ . with this work, #shilpagupta gives the microphone back to those who were rendered voiceless. the physical installation hosts an audio loop which shares the words of poets who have been subjected to imprisonment, detainment and execution. the reading of poem fragments alternates amongst the microphone speakers creating an immersive experience. the poems range from those written in the eighth century to present day, with authors spanning the globe. read in english, spanish, arabic, russian, azeri and hindi, amongst others, the piece reflects language as a tool of power that different states continually have tried to control. . book your (free) visit today!
