NADA House 2023

For Nada House 2023, Martha’s is excited to be showcasing four new paintings by Conner O’Leary.

O’Leary’s work can best be described as uneasy still lifes or quiet chaos; the paintings typically take place in liminal spaces flooded by light and shadows. The works have a natural conversation with the space in which they will be installed on the island. there are wood floors, windows with light beaming in, and even a hole in the ceiling that directly correlates with the painted cracks that Conner sneaks into his paintings that give the viewer a sense that there is something lurking beyond the surface.
