Midnight Snow

Midnight Snow

Okay, so. . . Music seems to be taking over my life again. . . Or more honestly, I am surrendering myself to the deep pleasure it gives me to feel the physical vibration that music gives, while also being able to express things that I am not prone to express through my visual work.Here is my most recent song.  I may - if I can make it sound good enough - post a recording of it. . .  Please let me know what you think!  xoxoMIDNIGHT SNOW  © Gabrielle Senza 2012I want to tell youSomething I’ve told no-oneUnder the black skyI watched you sleepingOhhhhh--Ohhhhh--That night in early MarchMy heart was getting strongerI didn’t knowIt would later beSmashed into a millionPieces when you left meWalking in the midnight snowWalking in…

It's been an explosively creative year! Here’s a quick rundown of what’s been going on. . . The year saw me stretch into new areas of creative expression – blasting into totally new territory for me – in addition to creating installations, drawings and paintings, I pushed myself to explore performance, video, music, spoken word, sound and dance - combining many of these disciplines with the intent to create more experiential expressions of my ideas. I’ll give you a quick rundown. . . Just over a year ago, I put Matteo on a plane for Paris and used the two weeks he was away as a self-imposed Artist Residency @ Chez Moi.  During that time I created several new pastels, prints and drawings. In July I premiered my very first…

OUTSIDE INSIDE

Uncategorized
Opening Reception: March 17th, 4-6 pm  57 Main Street Chatham, NY. Thompson Giroux Gallery is excited to announce a new exhibition featuring landscape painting by Gabrielle Senza, Frank Curran, Mark Howie, Christe Scheele and Sasha Chermayeff; paired with the outdoor constructivist sculpture of Roger Phillips. Roger's clean geometry mirrors nature by not only reflecting the environment but "they echo the most fundamental aspect of nature to replicate itself and create order."  The order Sasha Chermayeff creates is of confident brushwork and color, capturing a moment and squeezing nature into a ten square inch painting.  Frank Curran making simple observations, Christie Scheele painting not just light but the air itself, Gabrielle Senza trusting her intuition to embrace the feeling of a scene and Mark Howie revealing the emotional potential of a landscape.…

But for Housatonic artist Gabrielle Senza, much of the meaning in her latest work is derived directly from its impermanence.

In fact, Y Bar proprietor Jim Benson has commissioned Senza to create three successive artworks on the…
