Spiegel Gallery
“Masks had been a central theme in my work for more than a decade when the events of 2020 rattled our country. Maybe it was the sense of instability, but my total lack of creative response was quite puzzling. Patiently, I waited and, with time and perspective, ideas began bubbling to the surface, resulting in this body of work,” says Becker. “This work is about our current state of vulnerability, the subconscious, and the corners of ourselves, individually and collectively, that exist in darkness.”
Linda Gerson

Jody Sataloff History and Art Pavilion
Linda Gerson is a Maine-based contemporary abstract artist working in acrylic, collage, and various mixed media. A colorist, her work is imbued with color and shape. “I am inspired by whatever is present visually (in my studio) and my inner state,” Gerson says. “Painting is often an arena to work out dreams, daily dilemmas and conflicting emotions.”
