Mary DeVincentis

Mary DeVincentis employs a deeply personal iconography to investigate the dilemmas and mysteries of existence. Her paintings depict people, animals and elements of nature as equal in significance and numinosity. Her September 2022 solo exhibition Walking with Ghosts at Tappeto Volante Projects was inspired by the 12th century Persian poem The Conference of the Birds and was reviewed in the January 2023 edition of Art Forum. Previous NYC solo exhibits include Alone in This Together at M. David and Co, Out There, also at M. David and Co and Dwellers on the Threshold at David & Schweitzer Contemporary. Ongoing series include Dark Matters, paintings which investigate the shadowy side of human experience and Sin Eaters, works which depict society's saints, martyrs, scapegoats and outcasts. DeVincentis earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Maryland Institute College of Art and was awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Printmaking from St. Martin’s College of Art in London, UK. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is represented in many public and private collections. She lives in Brooklyn, NY.
