Winston Wächter Fine Art Seattle is pleased to announce our seventh solo exhibition with painter Tracy Rocca. The works in Flooded capture the overwhelming arrival of light— a literal flooding of visual information, delivered through sun-soaked, abstracted compositions. Rocca finds inspiration in the simple act of looking up; her work captures the hope we feel when clouds part in everyday skies, and the potential to find beauty anywhere. The paintings are rich with sunlight filtering through clouds, showcasing a specific depth and luminosity characteristic of Rocca’s body of work.
Working by natural light in her New Mexico studio, Rocca paints slowly and methodically as she builds up thin veils of brush-applied paint over several months. In past series Rocca has explored themes of nature through landscapes. Here, she shifts her view to the composition of the sky and fine details in the clouds. By balancing the familiar and the extraordinary, Rocca’s work resonates as both an everyday occurrence and a spectacle, akin to the rhythms of sunrise and sunset.
Tracy Rocca currently lives and works in Albuquerque, NM. Rocca received her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Washington and her Post Baccalaureate from the California College of the Arts Extended Education. She has shown her work internationally and is represented in many private and public collections including the United States Embassies Collection, the Microsoft Art Collection, the Ritz Carlton and the University of New Mexico Collection.
