The “inventive geography” of her compositions, constructed through the juxtaposition of cartographic lines against organic, amorphous forms, challenges reductive understandings of space and identity. Map-like images like Congruous Fantasy (2017) forward a limitless, open-ended approach to navigating a complex world. Championing nuance and eroding prescriptive categorizations of race and gender, Davis’s paintings encourage viewers to question the systems that shape society.
