For her first solo exhibition at Perrotin Shanghai, and in China,
Danielle Orchard revisits the history of still life to reframe female
corporeal representation. Her arresting and often humorous
images combine the visual language of modern art with everyday
realities of contemporary womanhood. While rendered with the
saturated palette of Impressionism and sharp contours of Cubism,
in Orchard’s paintings, subjects are freed from the rigidity of
painterly tradition.
