Megan Mulrooney is pleased to present Lethe’s Tavern, a solo exhibition of paintings by Los Angeles based artist Nicolette Mishkan, on view through June 29, 2025. The scene is mythic but familiar: a half-submerged bacchanal, a haunt for the wandering self. In Lethe’s Tavern, intoxication is both subject and state — a place where memory slips sideways and where bodies gleam with an otherworldly softness. Mishkan’s figures glisten in states of liquid attention as if in a trance: lips parted, eyes closed or doubled, flesh blurred at the edges as they dissolve into water or smoke. She captures not quite a dream, and not quite death, but rather the fevered pause between the two.
