In this work by Rachel Schultz, large, sequential gestures unfold intuitively across the page in duo-tones. Schultz offers up a figural landscape amongst which emotions and relations can linger, or transit. Here amongst the field of figures, the artist appears to be seeking, rehearsing, and apprehending a moment of essential human recognition — an impulsive yet concentrated expression of gesture.
