📝 Exhibition Description:

Visit Pilar Corrias to discover a solo booth of new paintings and charcoal paintings on paper by Christina Quarles.

The presentation includes the large-scale stretched painting, Stay Up Late to See the Light/ Stain' Up Late to See Tha Light/ Staid Up Late to See Tha Light, 2026: a monumental triptych with panels that alternate daily throughout the fair, revealing different orientations of the work. This evolving installation invites viewers to encounter the painting anew with each configuration, gradually unlocking its multiple compositions. The presentation also includes additional large-scale paintings alongside a series of smaller charcoal paintings on paper.

The booth, designed by the artist, uses a matte black shadow to dramatically divide the space, playing with contrast and the natural light that enters through the Grand Palais skylights throughout the day. With this body of work, Quarles constructs a world where fragility and resilience sit alongside one another, striking a delicate, sometimes tense balance.
