JEN DELUNA

Dust and Sweat and Feigning Grace

Solo Debut Exhibition
August 2nd - August 30th, 2024

Storage
52 Walker Street
4th Floor
Tribeca, New York 10013

Storage is pleased to present artist Jen DeLuna (b. 1999) in Dust and Sweat and Feigning Grace, the artist’s Solo Debut exhibition. The exhibition is on view at Storage’s Tribeca location from August 2nd through August 30th, 2024.

DeLuna’s figurative works, inspired by family and found photographs, provide a spectral snapshot of the past. Her oil-painted subjects, wrapped in blurry hazes, feature moments that pierce the surface with captivating highlights. DeLuna crafts uncanny, notionally invasive moments that extend to the viewer through sharp gazes. With mystifying and alluring qualities, the works question their own viewership and explore the conditions of femininity.
