The Balcony w/ Selina Foote: 5th September, 2025

The Balcony is an exhibition by artist Selina Foote that is currently being shown at Two Rooms. The Balcony presents a series of geometric acrylic and graphite works on canvas that emerge from familiar 19th century paintings and their reproductions. 

Through a process of self prescribed rules Foote transforms these reproduction images of 19th century paintings, radically defamiliarizing them and bringing them into a place of full geometric abstraction. Lost within their own technologies of reproduction but also pulling them back into a place of painterly materiality. 

Maya had a chat with Selina about the show and overall practice.
