Description

Rough White by Nancy Selvin (mixed media, 2003, detail). The image illustrates a key feature in Nancy Selvin's mature work in detail so it can be seen: her subtle approach to color, texture and surface, which includes a wide range of material and surface contrasts (exposed raw clay, ghostly layers of matte underglaze, fragmented text, splattered glaze, slate, metal, chalky drywall) and visible processes (expressionistic gouges and brushstrokes, seams, screened images, pencil markings, incised lines, and enigmatic text) that both individuate and unify the pieces and also draw in the viewer. This work and similar works were publicly exhibited in prominent venues and discussed in major art journals and daily press publications.
