Bronx born artist Mala Iqbal’s paintings in her exhibit Shape Shifting in the Outer Boroughs and Its Effect on the Traveler’s Perception of the Midnight Sky capture New York in a rare depth of familiarity, experience, and knowing. “Here, difference is masterfully depicted, announcing and advocating for space and place within a family of other spaces, each a small part of the city, each a rhythmic beat that reflects the beats of others,” writes Andrew Woolbright (@andrewwoolbright) of the show in our October ArtSeen section. “Here, difference labors on, developing passage in the face of any hostilities.” You can read Woolbright’s full review through the link in our bio. And you can see Shape Shifting in the Outer Boroughs and Its Effect on the Traveler’s Perception of the Midnight Sky, on view at Soloway Gallery (@soloway348) through October 9th! ⚡️ #MalaIqbal #SolowayGallery #bronxartist #brooklynart
