In a recent series of seemingly abstract oil paintings, Michelle Grabner creates balanced compositions from the patterns made by common, unspectacular crocheted blankets. In doing so, she takes the common granny square motif and elevates it to a state of abstraction that speaks to the ideal. The conventional patterns reference a seemingly staid bourgeoise interior, and the myth of domestic stability.
