In our modern era where focus is constantly pulled towards the self, Laura Kandle’s Circle series asks the audience to pause and think big. Each work takes an element of our natural cosmos, small and large, and grounds it in a meditative center that draws the viewer into a state of mindful contemplation. The series leans into textured negative spaces and their interplay with color and shape to invoke awe.

I am presenting the Circle series to you as a concept for a solo show at your gallery, or as part of a suitable joint exhibition. Works from this series have been collected by known and new collectors, and have been featured at numerous galleries across New York, and series works are currently on view at Atlantic Gallery in the Chelsea Art District as part of Imagined Worlds: A Visual Narrative Exhibition. I invite you to view the series in-person from July 14th-August 1st and would be pleased to guide you though my works at the gallery. The series will also be available for viewing after this date at my studio in Astoria or can be transported to your gallery for an in-gallery viewing and discussion.

The series requires minimal gallery modifications, but is best suited to a quiet space where viewers can get comfortably lost in the works, mirroring the transformative experiences that audiences have at sacred spaces like The Rothko Chapel. The series as an exhibition can also be paired with inspired events such as musical experiences, philosophical discussions, and meditations.

Below you will find further examples of the series works, as well as examples of the spaced in which they have been exhibited. Thank you and I look forward to discussing how to bring this series to your gallery.
