Exhibition Painting

Resting Place (Two-Person Exhibition w/ Nicole Duennebier)

On view September 20 - November 14, 2025
13FOREST Gallery is pleased to present Resting Place, an exhibition of new paintings by Nicole Duennebier and Mike Ryczek. In Resting Place Duennebier and Ryczek ponder a recurring theme in both of their work, that of an absent yet strongly felt presence. Summoning an atmosphere of mystery and curiosity tinged with menace, both artists meditate on tombs, makeshift altars and accumulations of objects - sites laden with meaning not immediately accessible to the viewer. Through hallucinatory compositions, conveyed and obscured by arcane iconography, Ryczek and Duennebier create an environment for their morbid fascinations.
