Aschely Vaughan Cone
Aschely Vaughan Cone talks about her recent trip to Jakarta, repeated forms in her work, and her use of duality in painting.
The arch paintings are a meditation on doubleness, both through the structure at work in these paintings and through their figure-ground relationships.
About the Artist
Aschely Vaughan Cone (b. 1985) is a New York-based artist interested in game boards, how surfaces give way to depth, and things that are two things at once. In her human-scale paintings, Aschely creates geometric monoliths that confront the viewer, shapeshifting between flat abstraction and portal-like entryways. A study in dichotomies, Aschely's paintings combine matte with gloss finishes, gestural mark making with precise linework, and symmetry with imbalance.
