Her work is planned but spontaneously painted with loosely geometric, graphic gestures in light to dark grays on various white grounds.[1] Her paintings are abstract and often anthropomorphic and darkly humorous with psychologically charged imagery.[2][3][4] Feldman’s artistic influences range from Cubism to the works of Jean Arp, Ellsworth Kelly, Shirley Jaffe, and Mary Heilmann.[5] Feldman is represented by Blackston Gallery in New York City, ANNAELLE Gallery in Stockholm, Sweden, Brand New Gallery in Milan, Italy, and Ratio 3 in San Francisco, California. She lives and works in Brooklyn, New York City.
Feldman's work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.[6]
