picket variations

This ongoing series of works on paper, begun in 2018, expands on Williams’ investigation of fences as both physical structures and cultural symbols, drawing on themes of property, territory, and the mythology of the American Dream. Over time, this rigid, repeating form evolved beyond its architectural origins into increasingly figurative and expressive compositions, suggesting crowds, bodies, structures, and tapestries.
