Earlier this month, Vernon O’Meally<\/a> opened his latest solo exhibition “Flowers for Minnie” at ABXY<\/a>. The show, which features O’Meally’s greyscale and black and white paintings of flowers and linear abstractions, invites viewers to allow emotions and sensations evoked by the works to emerge.
To dive into O’Meally’s work involves allowing sensations to overwhelm one’s experience: the musicality of his brush strokes, high contrast details serving beacons of hope and longing amidst darkness, and allowing the excruciating labor of joy to crack through the grout of depression.
O’Meally indulged us in some of our more nuanced questions about his work, process, and personal journey in a recent interview.
