‘Creation and dissolution’

“Interface” (oil), by Elsie Kagan, in her show “the drop falls,’’ at 3S Artspace, Portsmouth, N.H., through Sept. 27.

The gallery says:

“Elsie Kagan's lush, gestural oil paintings begin with her hand but evolve through collaboration with AI. Her layered landscapes are never real places — they explore climate anxiety, cultural upheaval, and the tension between material mark-making and algorithmic processing. Water is a recurring metaphor in her work, reflecting life, reflection, and the cycles of creation and dissolution.’’
