Mixed media |Chloe Sells

Galerie Miranda’s 2026 winter exhibition proposes a voyage into abstracted landscapes by three contemporary artists working between painting and photography: Chuck Kelton, Chloe Sells and Marian Wijnvoord. CHLOE SELLS (1976, American), takes analog landscape photographs that she prints and cuts by hand, reworking them either in the darkroom or in her studio by applying overlays of light, paint and ink. These new works were taken in the Aspen forests of Colorado, the artist’s childhood home, that she then hand printed in the darkroom and then overlaid with acrylic paint, using the delicate, antique process of marbling, traditionally used in book-binding. All of Chloe Sells’ works are unique. The exhibition title Winterreise (Winter’s Journey), references the celebrated Franz Schubert song cycle (1827) which recounts the melancholy of a young traveller who wanders out into the snowy landscape on a journey to rid himself of his lost love.
