Curator's Notes
This piece is part of Tork’s collection “A collection of ordinary days.”
These paintings capture the time when she became a mom—a period of big changes and love. They show everyday moments, like morning walks and evening sunsets. Motherhood helped her see new things about the world and herself.
The series explores a study of color through two methods: using paneling and shapes that appear to float in space.
Each painting freezes a moment in time, as she and her child both grow. “I’m curious what you'll think of them when you're older,” she wonders.

Medium
Mixed media on cotton canvas.
Tork’s abstract art features a blend of acrylic, pastels and spray paint on cotton canvas. Charcoal, graphite, and colored pencils also feature from time to time. Working outdoors and indoors allows her to take in her surroundings and interact with people.
On the surface, her work is about motherhood and New York City. But it’s also about intentionality and balance.

Anna Tork
NYC-based artist Anna Tork lives on the Upper West Side, a neighborhood known for its abundance of parks, skyline and the Hudson River. Her walks along the water draw a beautiful contrast between the permanent sculpture of building lines and the whimsical curvature of soft water. Key to the artist’s practice is taking a few months in between series to explore new techniques and concepts — a time for the messy and imperfect. Tork’s abstract art features a blend of acrylic, pastels and spray paint on cotton canvas. Charcoal, graphite, and colored pencils are also featured from time to time.
