About this Artwork

Martina Nehrling is an American abstract artist whose dynamic and richly textured paintings evoke kaleidoscopic worlds of pattern, color, shadow and form.

Fume is part of a group of paintings exploring the edgeless atmosphere of anxiety during high pitched and demoralizing political divisiveness. The titles of the pieces in this series reference air in some way, as in the inescapable air of apprehension and in this case, a double meaning.
