Opening Reception | Gesture Material and the Language of the Paintbrush
A new series of paintings by Jamie Zeccola explores the expressive potential of the paintbrush as both a tool and a subject. Blending influences from Art Brut, abstraction, and satirical narrative, the works emphasize gesture, materiality, and spontaneity.
Constructed with layered acrylic and oil and found elements, the paintings combine thick brushwork, vivid color, and reworked frames that serve as integral parts of the composition. Everyday objects and fragments appear throughout, creating intimate, diary-like scenes that balance humor, memory, and raw expression.

Welcome to Harlem in Havana reimagined, where forbidden glamour, beauty, and electrifying performance collide.
