The exhibition 'Winging It' by Nina Chanel Abney focuses on modern spirituality and resilience, colorful representations of navigating life's uncertainties through varied sources like religion and social media. Abney's work challenges traditional belief systems via vibrant paintings, sculptures, and her debut neon installation, highlighting the duality of sacred and secular. The title signifies the process of piecing together one's own understanding of faith in a world where conventional structures fail, celebrating human adaptability and the quest for meaning in our complex realities.
Abney juxtaposes symbols of traditional religion—angels, halos, and altars—with modern motifs, blending the sacred with the secular while critiquing the commodification of belief.
The title, Winging It, captures the essence of navigating a chaotic world without a clear guide, revealing the creativity required to find spiritual sustenance.
