Nathalie Du Pasquier, a founding member of the influential Milan-based design group Memphis, made a decisive pivot in the 1980s to focus on painting. Her architectural imagination and vocabulary of lyrical forms is evident in both her two-dimension and three-dimensional work. Untitled 2020 exemplifies her persistent interest in the interaction of planes within a defined space. The artist has recently been working in a square format, which complicates the orientation of her compositions, resulting in a kind of weightlessness.
