Continuous Compounding

A solo exhibition by Jerry Carniglia. The exhibition title, referring to Jacques Derrida’s concept of the present as inexorably linked to memory of the past and expectation of the future, also recalls the artist’s experience making the work. As much as every instant of the painter’s process requires his in-the-moment decision-making, the resulting works are multi-layered compilations of action over time—gestures and counter-gestures that amplify or obscure one another.
