Oona Ratcliffe is an artist born and raised in Bolinas and now residing in New York.
This exhibition of botanical line drawings features a body of recent works on paper, all made during the past few years while Ratcliffe was living in Bolinas. The drawings served as a deep revisiting of the inspiration for the large-scale abstractions the artist has made over the last two decades.
Ratcliffe gathered her direct observations of plants mainly from her mother’s Bolinas garden, the gardens of close friends, and through a generous collaboration with Mary Nesbit’s California Orchids.
These drawings primarily reflect Ratcliffe’s relationship with line, shape, and form and her curiosity about the spaces between abstraction and representation.
The exhibition includes a few small oil paintings that connect through color and composition to her large-scale abstractions. Ratcliffe earned a BA at UC Santa Cruz and an MFA at Hunter College in New York.
