From Shattered To Transformation: Cadence Debuts Reckoning In New York

Brooklyn, NY - December 3, 2024 - Beneath the vibrant chaos of Cadence Hooks bold new collection, Reckoning , lies a story of survival, rebirth, and the beauty found in brokenness. Launching at Espial Gallery this winter, the exhibition promises an evocative journey into the human psyche, where raw emotion and abstract storytelling collide.

For Cadence, painting is not just creation; it's excavation. Inspired by a period of deep personal reckoning, this body of work channels the artist's own navigation of loss, identity, and transformation. Each painting serves as both a mirror and a map - offering glimpses of what it means to reconstruct oneself after being unmade. Through jagged layers of expressive color, tangled gestural line work, and haunting yet ethereal figures, Hooks dares to lay bare the fragile, resilient nature of the human spirit.

"What draws me to abstraction is the honesty in imperfection," Cadence Hooks explains. "These figures are fractured, but they're not broken - they're in the process of becoming." This process of becoming is reflected not just in the figures but also in the compositions themselves. Layers of paint peel back like pages of a diary, revealing bursts of geometric patterns beneath the chaos of brushstrokes. These sharp-edged forms represent the structures that shape, confine, or define us - and the tension that arises when we try to break free.

Cadence, who has exhibited globally from Cape Town to New York, has cultivated a reputation for creating works that transform pain into poetry. With Reckoning , she continues to push the boundaries of contemporary abstract figurative art, delivering a collection that is deeply personal yet undeniably universal.

The exhibition marks a significant moment for the artist and for New York's vibrant art scene. "This collection is a love letter to imperfection, resilience, and the beauty of starting over," says Cadence Hooks.

Reckoning opens on December 12, 2024, and runs through December 15, 2024, at Espial Gallery. The gallery will host an opening night reception on December 12 at 7 p.m., where attendees can meet the artist and immerse themselves in this extraordinary collection. Private viewings of the collection can be scheduled thereafter.
