Description

An original mixed media painting by Nathalie Kalbach, signed in the lower right.

“Up in the Hills” is an original painting made with spray paint, acrylic paint, gouache, and markers on canvas. Nathalie was inspired by her Strolls through the Hood in Jersey City for this mixed media painting, and specifically Moore*s place, a bar and jazz club run by Mrs. Ruth. It has been there for over 60 years as part of the neighborhood, and now during the pandemic has become a special, magical space with live music outside every weekend to soothe our souls. The building itself used to have a different life long before the music arrived – there is still machinery in the basement. Nat’s colorful paint choices and dancing line work tell the story of a vibrant heartbeat in the city. Her layers of color and mark making hint at a long and interesting history that is yet to be uncovered.

Piece measures 10×10″
