Description
Margaret Fitzgerald's works are a building up of many layers of paint and then scraping through these layers to reveal the passage of time and thought that lies below the surface.

Fitzgerald compares her work to an old city wall where many papers have been affixed, covered up, and then removed, resulting in an abstract design that was created by processes that were both intentional and accidental. The viewer is compelled into a closer investigation, for what appears to be a simple composition is actually the revelation of a complex past.
