In Anne Marchand’s recent works, paint appears in thick swaths, thin veils, rivulets, and in flows
of enamel, ink, and acrylic. The interacting of differing viscosities forms liquid fields, reminiscent of
weather systems and of biological growth. Marchand allows the poetic association in her paintings
to arise naturally from the transit between above and below, the winding path, and the dissolving
structure. There are the smaller incidents of patterned fabric, glass beads, along with stenciled words
and diagrammatic images. And enlivening everything is color, emerging in multifarious ways: like a
blush in a cloud, a tint in water, a harmonic chord, or a glowing fire. There is a geometry underpinning the paintings, with a work’s ground initially marked with a pencil, marker, or thread, breaking it into divisions. At times the surface is inscribed intuitively, after the paint is poured. Color is
indispensable in achieving the emotional quality in the work. In the newest paintings, patterns are
stenciled on the surface or in the printed fabrics that are overlaid with translucent paint.
