Since making her home in Northern California in the early 1980s, Oropallo has worked in close collaboration with other Bay Area artists and thinkers including those featured in this exhibition: Michael Goldin, Jeremiah Franklin, and Andy Rappaport.Originally trained as a painter, Oropallo incorporates mixed media techniques, including photomontage, video, computer editing, printmaking, and painting into her practice. Her composites layer visual sources, producing dense interplay between time, place, form, and content, often addressing themes of climate catastrophe, political uprising, and gender identity. Whether still or moving images, the resulting works bear traces of the distortions that evolve or remain from her manipulations, and are imbued with the radical, politically-charged, and uniquely personal spirit of the Bay Area. |
