Meghann Stephenson's new suite of nine paintings draws from Dante's Inferno, but replaces epic damnation with hushed domestic tension. Nightgown-clad women sit amid picket fences and deep shadows, their stillness suggesting both entrapment and quiet defiance. The palette is restrained, the compositions precise, leaving room for the viewer to read each scene as a psychological study.
The exhibition's strength lies in its ambiguity: sins like anger or vanity are rendered as intimate moments of thought, not spectacle. Stephenson's use of light and dark echoes old master painting, while her subject matter grounds it in contemporary unease. 'Queen of the Neighborhood!' offers a tender, unsettling vision worth seeking out.
