Lynda Keeler’s second solo exhibition at Mojave Flea Trading Post (383 North Indian Canyon open daily from 11-5pm) in Palm Springs runs through March 6th 2022 is a love letter to the desert.

These paintings translate the shapes, colors, textures and lines that she sees on her daily walks through neighbors including The Movie Colony, Deepwell, Little Tuscany and The Mesa into dynamic expressions using a vivid palette, unexpected materials and vibrant movement.

While grounded in specific neighborhoods across Palm Springs she has expanded the map making structure she is known for to create more abstract impressions of the ever-changing environment, from wild canyons and washes to the mid-century modern and contemporary architecture, all a continuing source of inspiration.

A group of sculptures titled Frameworks compliments and builds on these paintings. These pieces can be thought of as abstract “drawings” using wire to create a multi-dimensional experience of moving through space.
