  • Andrea Breiling’s Brian Liked & Heart It (Instagram Blows), 2020, is a strong gestural work, featuring bold colors animated by unexpected moments of impasto. The intersecting lines challenge one another, creating a tension-filled drama in a mix of sweeping brushstrokes and spray paint on the canvas. Of her own work, Breiling discusses her desire to evoke an emotional reaction from the viewer: “I hope in some way or another viewers can experience a moment of transcendence at some point, and maybe even forget they’re looking at a painting entirely.”The varying quality and richness of color, linework, and texture in Brian Liked & Heart It (Instagram Blows) come together to illicit an experience unique to every individual.
