Ricco/Maresca Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of new painted plates by Gil Batle. The show marks the gallery’s first presentation devoted exclusively to this body of work, following Batle’s debut Hatched in Prison (2015), the solo exhibition Re-Formed (2018), and a one-person booth at the Independent Art Fair (2019). Taken together, those earlier presentations established Batle as a singular chronicler of incarceration and survival, incising dense narratives into ostrich eggshells and other fragile supports. The plates carry that vision into a different register: flat, frontal, domestic, and deceptively familiar.
