Cody Tumblin (American b. 1991), paints abstractions that dance between the ordinary and divine, often depicting celestial bodies or sprawling flora in rich color palettes and densely layered collage. Drawing from the visual language of illuminated manuscripts, alchemical illustrations, and a complex history of spiritual abstraction, Tumblin's paintings are enigmatic and curious, reflections of a restless internal landscape. "Abstraction is a kind of divining rod, it searches and asks – it can lead us beyond ourselves if we let it."
