Mauser’s paintings investigate the tensions at play between the physicality of painting itself and the speed of the image within the language of abstraction. She explores knowledge as an empirical product inscribed both in and by the body. Works that trespass through visual modes of figuration and spatial illusion make the painting process an active search for form and meaning, both for the artist and for the viewer. This aesthetic isn’t transcendent, but intricate and corporeal. Her works do not beg the question why forms begin and exist, but how they will play out.
