Illume-Mine presents the newest paintings by artist Kristin Baker (born 1975), from 2011-2013. Baker's compositions often involve the distortion of light and color: rectangles float like prisms through which red turns to purple, white fans out and tangerine comes in and out of focus. At the core of her work, which has developed over the course of a decade, is an exploration of the boundaries and expectations of the painted medium. The abstract works in this catalogue extend this investigation. In these new paintings, visual and process-oriented allusions to photography, printmaking and other two-dimensional media combine to reveal a diverse acrylic idiom. Illume-Mine is also the first publication to feature Baker's Minums --small paintings whose scale reflects the size of notebook paper but displays the same dramatic effects as the large-scale works. This monograph was edited by Nikki Columbus and includes an essay by Suzanne Hudson.
