“In My Space” (2025) • 18" x 24" • Acrylic on canvas by Aurora Geesey • About the artwork, from the artist: "In My Space is a piece that pushed the boundaries of my painting style. Typically, I gravitate towards one object as a focal point and maximizing detail, while utilizing bold colors in the background. I’ve always had a fascination with the element of space in art. In this piece, I explored space as a subject matter as well as a design element. Mimicking a collage, each object is placed intentionally within the composition and is depicted in a starry, space-like universe."
