About the Item

Part of Burton Morris’ solo exhibition Icons in Bloom at MASH Gallery, Couture l'Argent presents the rose as a luminous emblem suspended between image, object, and symbol. Rendered through glittering linework and set against a saturated ground, the composition transforms the familiar floral icon into something closer to a jewel or medallion. The rose, historically associated with romance, beauty, and luxury, appears simultaneously delicate and monumental, its shimmering surface recalling the brilliance of diamonds and the refinement of haute couture. While Morris’ earlier contemporary pop art works emphasized crisp outlines and bold graphic clarity aligned with the traditions of classic Pop Art, this body of work introduces a heightened sense of material presence. The glitter surface activates the line itself, allowing the rose to shift between drawing and object. Light catches the textured outline, producing subtle variations that animate the icon and move it beyond the flatness historically associated with pop imagery. The piece reflects Morris’ continued evolution from tightly controlled graphic reproduction toward a more dimensional and materially expressive visual language. By combining the recognizable immediacy of pop iconography with surfaces that reference jewelry, fashion, and luxury design, the rose becomes more than a decorative motif. It functions as a symbol of permanence and brilliance. In Couture l'Argent, Morris expands the vocabulary of contemporary pop art by merging silkscreen lineage with sculptural surface and ornamental refinement. The result is an image that feels both timeless and contemporary, where the rose operates as an enduring cultural icon reframed through light, texture, and material presence.

By Tiffany Calvert

Located in New Orleans, LA

Calvert’s current paintings investigate the relationship between digital media and the reception and perception of images, and utilizes diverse technologies such as fresco, 3D modeling, AI and data manipulation through code. She is especially interested in the evolution of pictorial space. Today we view our screens and the world they occupy as a shallowly layered space of overlapping desktop windows. The picture plane has tilted up again from the flatbed to float in front of our eyes. Calvert’s paintings in turn depict an intermediate space, where the verticality of the still life paintings cohabitate with these digital panes. Dutch floral still life paintings encapsulate multiple concerns. Their subjects were botanical fantasies, emblems of an economic mirage that has contemporary corollaries. Most important to Calvert’s pictorial concerns, they depict ephemeral things in shallow and diagrammatic space - they are all foreground. They contain an abundance of visual information in overwhelming density, creating an allover resolution; a visual field that is equivalent to digital noise. By making painterly interventions into reproductions, Calvert attempts to dissolve the layer between the resolution of the source image and abstraction of the painted mark. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Tiffany Calvert has exhibited her work in the US and abroad including Lawrimore Project in Seattle, E.TAY Gallery in New York, the Speed Museum in Louisville and Cadogan Contemporary in London. Residencies include the Djerassi Resident Artists Program, I-Park, and ArtOmi International Arts Center where she received a Geraldine R. Dodge Fellowship. Calvert has received grants from the Great Meadows Foundation and the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. Her work was recently profiled by critic John Yau in the online journal Hyperallergic.
