What if We Don't Get Older


On view: July 12th - August 16th, 2025

Good Mother Gallery is pleased to present What if We Don’t Get Older, a solo exhibition by Madeline Brice. Based in Kansas City, Missouri, Brice is known for her psychologically charged paintings that delve into the chaotic beauty of human neurosis. Her latest body of work explores themes of mortality, identity, suppressed desires, and the false narratives we construct to survive. In a series of vivid, dreamlike compositions, Brice invites viewers into fractured landscapes where domestic symbols collide with existential dread.
