Press Release
The American imagination thrives on a relentless optimism—a refusal to yield, even in the face of profound loss. In Heartbreaker, Dream Maker, Tara Walters channels this spirit, creating a body of work that explores the fragile dance between joy and sorrow, light and dark, surrender and resistance. These works, completed before the California wildfires swept through Malibu and destroyed her home, stand as both a celebration of life’s dualities and a meditation on resilience.
At the heart of this exhibition are 10 new paintings and two pastel drawings, born of Pacific Ocean water and layered with water-based and oil-based paints. The materials themselves reflect the tension between fluidity and permanence, an apt metaphor for the themes Walters explores: optimism versus pessimism, confrontation versus play. Her images of dancing jellyfish, flaming tigers in the trees, and doves crying over the canyons of Malibu evoke a verdant world teetering on the brink.
