About the Work
“The Sirens (Panel III) unfolds as a luminous field of intensity, where a coral-outlined figure emerges against a saturated red-pink ground layered with expressive strokes of softer pink tones. The body is semi-transparent, allowing the background to pass through its form, dissolving solidity into a fluctuating surface. Within the figure, abstract chromatic inflections of blue, yellow, orange, peach, and periwinkle interrupt and reconfigure the silhouette, shifting the body toward a state of visual permeability rather than containment. As the concluding panel of the triptych within The DANCE: Between Polarity, the work resolves not in closure but in dissolution where presence is diffused into color, and form becomes an oscillation between visibility and disappearance.”
Artist
Bailey Lalonde
View ProfileLALONDE & LALONDE are an international artist duo whose collaborative practice builds on extensive independent careers. Bailey Lalonde (b. 1993) is a Canadian-born, Costa Rica-raised multidisciplinary artist and curator. Her work spans painting, performance, and film, and has been exhibited across New York, London, Paris, Milan, Amsterdam, Malta, Düsseldorf, Costa Rica, and Miami Art Basel. She has curated over 40 exhibitions featuring more than 250 artists, including Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol. Christi Lalonde maintains an independent studio practice alongside the collaboration, informed by her background as a professional dancer and interior designer. LALONDE & LALONDE is the collaborative painting practice of Bailey and Christi Lalonde. Working on shared canvases, the mother–daughter duo produces figurative paintings through a sustained process of layering, interruption, and reworking. Their approach, both additive and reductive, dissolves singular authorship while maintaining a unified visual language. Situated within contemporary abstract figuration, their work balances gesture and restraint, allowing figures to emerge through materially driven surfaces rather than narrative construction. Rooted in dialogue, the practice operates as an ongoing negotiation of mark-making, where control and intuition remain in constant exchange. The resulting paintings emphasize presence, embodiment, and emotional immediacy. Developed as a focused body of work over the past two years, LALONDE & LALONDE has been exhibited internationally and is held in private collections.
