Paige Beeber is best known for kaleidoscopic abstract paintings that could be mistaken for textiles. Beeber incorporates a wide range of materials—oil, spray, acrylic paints, inks, dyes, and found objects—into her large-scale, intensely detailed works. Beeber received a BFA from Alfred University. She has since been noted for her distinctive approach to mark-making, incorporating abstract and geometric patterns that give her paintings the appearance of needlework, forging a link to past generations of artisans in her family’s history. Beeber’s prominent use of zesty colors and dynamic mix of techniques create moments of harmony and discord that reflect the rhythm of contemporary life.
