High Noon is proud to present Marisa Baumgartner’s NYC debut solo exhibition, Standing in the Eye. Through personal experience of growing up between two countries as an Austrian-American, the concept of the “binary” became central to Baumgartner’s work. She utilizes this through integrated mixed media and photography, creating a charge of negative and positive spaces echoed in the turbulent subject matter of hurricanes and active volcanoes. The series is a reverberation of commentary on the aerial views in which she has chosen to reveal spaces and how they’ve been affected by climate change. Through highlighting these areas she brings forth something often ignored while simultaneously concealing it with her mark-making.
