‘Meditative calm’

“Floating Into Orbit” (mixed media on acrylic), by Carrie McGee, in her show “Liminal Orbits,’’ at Lanoue Gallery, Boston, through Sept. 27.

The gallery says the show “continues her exploration of creating suspended works inspired by process, improvisation and color.

“Within her art making, McGee employs alternative ways of applying pigments and other materials to transparent acrylic panels. In addition to rust imprints and pigment evaporations, paint pours are utilized – much like wet-in-wet watercolor techniques – resulting in a palpable materiality.

“Her practice radiates meditative calm, and in this latest series, circles, ellipses and spheres join her trademark grids, evoking celestial bodies and their orbits. Interconnected elements create thresholds of movement and stillness, with cycles that never fully close.’’
