Georgia Elrod’s practice centers on the subject of the body. The anatomical form serves simply as a jumping off point, as she paints bodies both figuratively and abstractly. Her recent works tend toward more recognizable forms: portraits of Elrod herself and other imagined subjects can be seen in repose, fervor, or giving birth. In these dense yet open-ended works on paper, the physical form is both questioned and revered. Internal and external landscapes act as suggestive, poetic spaces.
