“Gallery Orange is proud to announce that we will be hosting a solo show for our dear friend and exquisite artist, Gigi Mills, March 23rd – April 14th, 2013
Mills’ show “The Deep South and Other Stories” will feature ä brand new collection of works on panel and paper whose subject matter ranges from dreamy scenes of landscapes and circus scenes under the ‘big top’ to living room scenes from our very own Royal St, New Orleans. Mills grew up in a circus family and is trained as a dancer and choreographer; her works illustrate her keen understanding of and control over movement. Figures in her pieces sway and slouch and reach and grieve in distinct Mills style that is simultaneously playful and yet precise. Mills’ works depict an abstract world of subdued color which she then (sometimes) activates with pops of bright color or specific human interaction. Her scenes are personal—even autobiographical—and deeply emotional. The figures in her works become symbols that reach beyond her specific life experiences. Gigi Mills’ collectors connect to her dreamy narratives in an intimate and sensitive way.
Join Gallery Orange and Gigi Mills for the festive opening of “The Deep South and Other Stories” on Saturday March 23rd, 6-9 pm!”
