Emily Roz Opens New Solo Exhibition at Kristen Lorello Gallery

December 2nd, 2024

Exhibition view of “Astral Glow” at Kristen Lorello Gallery.

Emily Roz (MFA Fiber 1998) recently opened a new solo exhibition at Kristen Lorello Gallery in New York. Astral Glow features Roz’s new paintings featuring the female subject in various poses integrated with striped patterns, constellations, and pearls.

An excerpt from curator Rachel Federman’s essay states, “These images conjure the market-expanding magic that corporations have long mined from women’s bodies.  This twentieth-century trend has only grown in scope and intensity under the exhausting algorithmic logic of social media…In Roz’s painted universe, the body is not an object pinned under the male gaze or pressed into service as a sales pitch–it is powerful, potentially transformative.”

Astral Glow will be on view through December 21, 2024.
