Alice Mizrachi

Flow: Release and Surrender

The Bishop Gallery is pleased to announce Flow: Release and Surrender, a solo exhibition by artist, muralist, teacher and curator Alice Mizrachi. The exhibition will feature numerous artworks covering an expansive plethora of mediums. Throughout her career, Mizrachi has shown that she can excel using a myriad of techniques. FLOW: RELEASE AND SURRENDER will explore a selection of her diverse practice: minimalist works on paper, large scale mixed media collage works, and ceramic mask sculptures.

Mizrachi’s drawings on paper are the product of what she describes as “totally surrendering to the moment, allowing instincts and subconscious to take over.” With visceral strokes of vibrant color on a variety of paper types, fluidly connecting one color to the next. Though Mizrachi’s creative process is driven by intuition, the artist also brings a mathematical precision to her interpretation due to her masterful line work. The mixed media collages are created using rich layers of handmade paper and fabric. These large-scale works illustrate the influence of abstract expressionism and implementing collage techniques used by artists like Romare Bearden. An essential part of the artist’s practice explores the heritage of the divine feminine imagery, most apparent in the marquee works of the exhibition.

The ceramic mask sculptures reflect the artist’s first foray with working in clay, introducing another dimension to the FLOW series. Over the past few decades, Mizrachi draws from a variety of cultural references in her practice. The masks, in particular, have a distinct sense of familiarity. Moreover it appears as if the brush strokes and line work could not be contained on paper and were compelled to take a more corporeal form. This evolution in Mizrachi’s practice has resulted in the production of these intriguing sculptures. FLOW: RELEASE AND SURRENDER celebrates what’s possible when an artist completely submits to the process and trusts their instincts. Join us celebrating the opening of Alice Mizrachi’s more intriguing body of work to date on September 15th, 2022, 6pm at The Bishop Gallery, 630 Flushing Avenue, Brooklyn NY, 11206.
