All One Song: Meghan Brady

The Pit is pleased to present “All One Song,” Rockland, Maine-based artist Meghan Brady’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition will be on view from May 3 - June 7, 2025 at The Pit Los Angeles.

All One Song reads (and sounds) like a mantra: three stressed syllables of rounded vowels that resolve in a low-register slant rhyme and can be spliced into a kind of aural trigonometry. All One Song. All one, One song. All song.  

Meghan Brady’s paintings converse through this logic of permutations. She works using an A-frame easel, a fitting foundation for the rough-hewn geometry of the paintings’ compositions. Her images are culled from an alphabet of stripes, triangles, half-circles, and ambiguous shapes that can be variously read as hands or flowers. The speculative (re)arrangements of shapes have, as they say, “good bones,” like the vernacular wooden architecture of the Victorian houses and rooflines in Rockland, Maine, the town on the Atlantic Ocean where Brady’s studio is located in a former high school classroom. A room is a structure is a stanza is a unit of song.
