Margot Samel

Margot Samel is pleased to present a display of paintings by the Philadelphia-based painter Olivia Jia (b.1994, Chicago IL), at The Salon by NADA & The Community, 2024. Painted in what the artist has described as a ‘nocturnal’ palette, these works have a somnambulant quality, appearing as if scenes encountered in a state between sleep and waking. Each is constructed around a tableau that the artist has arranged, often incorporating material collected by herself, or in the possession of family members.
