Known for his kaleidoscopic, mural-scale ink "paintings" on transluscent vellum, Sandeep Mukherjee has created five more super-sized works and seven smaller pieces for sister Gallery and its new, more ample extension, Cottage Home. Unlike his very focused show at Margo Leavin in 2002, this time Mukherjee has used the extra space to experiment on a far grander scale. Among the different kinds of manipulation involved, the use of an air compressor to blow ink across the surface of radiating abstractions seems especially compelling.
