LOCATE ARTS | The Focus Interview :
GEORGANNA GREENE

Jun. 26, 2025
Anna Mages: Your work often includes planes or fields of color that give your paintings structure and depth. This mark making is reminiscent of the edge of a palette knife or some hard edge. Can you elaborate on your process? Does the subject matter determine the kind of process you use for a given work?
Georganna Greene: I find subject and process to be very closely dependent on each other. I very rarely go in with a plan, but instead I usually allow the process to take shape in the way that it needs to. I love surprises… Full Interview here.

Nashville painter Georganna Greene explores rhythms of nature and creativity

Melinda Baker, arts writer

Feb 25th 2018

Nashville artist Georganna Greene taps into the life force that thrums beneath the surface of the natural world. Bridging landscape and abstract painting, her bold canvases harmonize energetic abstract marks with wide negative spaces and soft pastels, expressing the beauty and layers of intricacy in what we see and feel when we connect with the land and its creative energy.

Greene spoke to The Tennessean about her work and latest exhibition, “Adagio,” on view at Red Arrow Gallery through March 5.

How does the title of the show relate to the work?

Adagio (Italian, ad˙agio), meaning “at ease,” often refers to a slow tempo in music or a fluid manner of movement in ballet. As an artist, it takes me back to my childhood ballet classes, which instilled in me a sharp attention to tempo and rhythm and how they affect my physical and mental space. I am still in touch with that tempo as it pertains to the growth, ebb and flow of my relationships, my faith and my human existence across passing seasons and years. It loudly hums underneath all of my endeavors — cooking, sleeping, listening to a friend, jogging, cleaning brushes, cleaning dishes, cleaning everything, making messes. In my practice, I’m working toward getting more in touch with this rhythm in an honest and humble way.
