Xylor Jane
"In the current vernacular, one might call Xylor Jane’s work a mash-up of Alfred Jensen’s exploration of ancient numbers and patterns and the calendar systems mapped by Agnes Martin’s exquisite line and almost intolerable sensitivity. But we would need to add to that confluence the particular type of rigor Jane applies to her work in which her painting structures are predetermined by complex counting instructions the artist imposes upon herself." - Luke Murphy
