MAKI Gallery is pleased to present Brooklyn-based artist Clinton King’s solo exhibition, Mythmatics, at Omotesando, Tokyo. King’s first show with the gallery will feature a selection of immersive oil-on-linen paintings that spotlight the artist’s ongoing explorations of the material and perceptual possibilities of the medium. While King does not specify a precise interpretation for his works, he believes in their potential for metaphysical or symbolic meaning. The artist’s restless reinvention of the painted plane continues to break new ground through the use of broad, sweeping strokes that tacitly ignore the medium’s physical limits, implying that the image extends far beyond the canvas and is part of a much larger expanse.
