Miles Series

Gina Keatley is an abstract expressionist whose work explores the emotional and sensory imprint of place. With a background in global cultural studies and a long-standing passion for texture and transformation, Keatley creates large-scale paintings that serve as emotional cartographies—maps of memory, atmosphere, and human resonance.

In her latest series, Miles, Keatley invites viewers to experience travel not through geography, but through sensation. Each 60 x 48-inch canvas offers a vivid abstraction of a city, capturing its essential rhythm through layers of pigment, gesture, and texture. From the scorched reds of Madrid to the misted greens of Cork, the series moves across continents, collecting not landmarks but feelings. The work resists traditional representation, choosing instead to distill the invisible pulse of each location—the heat, the history, the cadence of daily life—into surfaces that hum with lived experience.

Based in New York City, Keatley’s practice is shaped by movement—across cultures, across mediums, and across emotional landscapes. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is held in private collections across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Miles marks a culmination of Keatley’s commitment to storytelling through abstraction: a visual atlas that traverses the globe, one mood at a time.
