About Mavis Pusey: Mobile Images
At The Studio Museum in Harlem, *Mavis Pusey: Mobile Images* surveys work by Mavis Iona Pusey, the Jamaican-born American abstract painter and printmaker. The exhibition gathers hard-edged, nonrepresentational compositions shaped by the logic of urban construction, scaffolding, and a city in continual revision. In New York, where Black abstract painters have often been written out of the story, the show restores Pusey’s place in that lineage. Her geometry reads less as pure formalism than as a record of movement and labor.
