Publications


Marceline Mason is a Detroit based artist. Her paintings are meditations on the urban landscape at night, focusing on reversing the role of the figure and the natural world.

“I believe that one’s environment can exist as an extension of the mind. In this body of work, I am creating portraits of nature set against a human landscape. In fleeting symbiosis, plant life and natural atmosphere exist alongside traces of human ephemera. I am drawn to environments that build on each other: quickly changing vines growing next to layers of fading, buffed out graffiti or flashing shop lights. I am capturing a specific moment in time, these scenes are based on lived experiences from night walks and moments of elation in viewing something beautiful alone. Navigating the natural environment during times of climate crises has brought me to a new place of reverence and intimacy with nature, as if searching for moments of existential resilience in the everyday.”
