Beaudette’s recent paintings map the social and political diversity we inhabit. They are a mash-up of overlapping structures in an interconnected global system. These composite cities arise from buildings and places she has been. Dissolving boundaries between the developed world and emerging economies, global cities act as ecologies interlinked in survival.
