Mavis Pusey: Mobile Images marks the first major museum survey dedicated to the work and life of Jamaican-born artist Mavis Pusey (1928–2019), featuring over 60 artworks from her prolific 50-year career. An important figure in geometric abstraction, Pusey created rich abstract paintings and works on paper that reflect her wide-ranging engagement with fashion, printmaking, and the urban environment of cities in which she lived. Despite her international presence in the art world, Pusey’s work has largely remained overlooked. This comprehensive retrospective is the culmination of over a decade of research and collaboration and offers an expansive reexamination of Pusey’s impact on abstraction and beyond.Much of her work addresses themes deeply connected to contemporary life, including her “Broken Construction” series (1960s-1990s), which explores the artist’s powerful use of destruction and renewal as metaphors for societal change. These works, along with others, are further contextualized through the inclusion of photographs, personal notes, and archival materials, offering invaluable insights into Pusey’s practice and the historical context surrounding her boundary-pushing work. Through this exhibition Mavis Pusey’s significant contributions to abstract art are explored, deepening our understanding of her lasting impact on contemporary artistic discourse.
