Gro & Uda are parts of the series "Layers of Her", celebrating womanhood across age, race and background. Displayed together, Gro and Uda form a powerful diptych that speaks to the shared human experience across age, race, and background. Though their appearances are starkly different, the mirrored poses and nearly identical backgrounds, with only a tonal shift in the blues, visually anchor them as one. This subtle mirroring evokes balance and duality, not contrast. * Each can be showcased by itself as well. *** Currently showing at Miriam West Village, 140 7th Ave South ***

About
The Artist

Mari Keeler Cornwell earned her B.F.A. in Painting and Drawing from the Laguna College of Art and Design in Laguna Beach, CA. Her figurative paintings have been exhibited in solo and group shows across New York’s Hudson Valley and are held in private collections worldwide, including Madrid and Australia. Her work has also appeared in several art books and magazines. Keeler’s practice examines women’s identity through figurative painting, often merging the figure with surrounding elements such as hair, fabric, or environment. This interplay reflects how individuality is shaped by culture, memory, and lived experience. While portraiture has been central to her work, she is now creating “portraits of moments” that interpret memories, atmospheres, and personal history from her Venezuelan childhood. Drawing on personal and cultural narratives, she weaves symbolism, pattern, and color to evoke heritage, resilience, and emotion. Balancing classical figuration with bold, stylized surfaces, her paintings invite reflection on empowerment, authenticity, and the shared dignity of women’s inner and outer worlds. *** Keeler's artwork is currently showing at all locations of Miriam restaurant ***
