Carrie McGee: Liminal Orbits

Carrie McGee’s solo exhibition, Liminal Orbits, continues her exploration of creating suspended works inspired by process, improvisation, and color.

Within her art making, McGee employs alternative ways of applying pigments and other materials to transparent acrylic panels. In addition to rust imprints and pigment evaporations, paint pours are utilized – much like wet-in-wet watercolor techniques – resulting in a palpable materiality.

Her practice radiates meditative calm, and in this latest series, circles, ellipses, and spheres join her trademark grids, evoking celestial bodies and their orbits. Interconnected elements create thresholds of movement and stillness with cycles that never fully close.

 Liminal Orbits suggests not only cosmic rhythms, but also inner states of transition, reflection, and permeability — where boundaries blur and meaning emerges in the in-between.
