Elizabeth Schwaiger, Ward for Abiding Hubris, 2023. (Detail)
The Brooklyn-based artist just opened “Now & Now & Now,” her first show with Nicola Vassell Gallery. Here, she discusses the creative and emotional paths that led her to it.
"Now & Now & Now," her first exhibition with Nicola Vassell Gallery in New York since the announcement of her representation in December, navigates the boundaries between internal and external realities, shaped by the lens of pregnancy and postpartum. Fresh off of the show’s opening, Schwaiger shares her insights into the profound impact of research on her creative process; slipping between metaphor and literalism; and what stepping into the cataclysm looks like.
