Neenee (2018) presents one of Swoon's characteristically intimate figurative portraits rendered through a layered combination of silkscreen and acrylic gouache on dyed cotton pulp paper, the latter handmade by the artist herself. The work carries the tactile warmth that defines Swoon's practice, where the material substrate is never incidental but an active participant in the image. The cotton pulp paper, dyed and formed by the artist's own hand, lends the surface an organic depth that commercially produced papers simply cannot replicate, giving the figure a sense of groundedness within the physical world rather than merely upon it. Swoon, born Caledonia Curry, first gained recognition through her large-scale wheat-paste installations across urban environments internationally, yet her works on handmade paper reveal the more contemplative, studio-bound dimension of a practice rooted in connection and portraiture. Neenee belongs to a body of work in which the artist turns her attention to individuals close to her, rendering them with a tenderness that resists spectacle in favor of quiet presence. The relatively modest dimensions of this piece, 27.9 by 35.6 centimeters, concentrate that intimacy further, inviting close looking rather than commanding a room from a distance. Signed by the artist, this work represents an accessible point of entry into Swoon's expanding legacy at a moment when her institutional recognition continues to grow. Currently presented through Hashimoto Contemporary, Neenee offers collectors a materially distinctive and personally resonant object, one that sits equally at home in a considered private collection as in conversation with works across contemporary figurative and socially engaged art.
