Mamie Holst: From the Series Landscape Before Dying
October 24 – December 6, 2008

With her ongoing series of paintings titled “Landscape Before Dying,” Mamie Holst explores the inspiring abstract landscape within her experience of chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome. Since 1989, when she was diagnosed with CFIDS and forced to return home, she has mined her syndrome related sensations for her work’s static, tremor, crosshairs, elegance, distortion, drift, space, targets, voids, isolation, and peace.
