Ever Baldwin’s practice probes the porous barriers that separate and frame experience. Working intuitively and with a material immediacy, Baldwin sets their thick, matte abstract paintings – made by mixing marble dust and pigment with wax – within burned and blackened hard-carved wooden frames. The artist’s compositional language finds its roots in the organic – bodies at varying points of abstraction populate the image, both recognizable and otherworldly.
Baldwin lives and works in Catskills NY. They received their BFA in painting from The Maryland Institute College of Art and MFA from The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Their work is included in the lending collection at Forge Projects in Taghkanic NY. They are a 2021 recipient of the NYFA/NYSCA Fellowship in Painting.
