Far Side of Town presents new paintings by Michael Gregory that engage the metaphors of the American West alongside the hopes, dreams, and labor bound to the land. His signature barns and silos emerge within rolling plains and expansive skies, rendered with meticulous detail and measured symmetry. The paintings stage encounters with openness through horizon lines, hills, and veils of fog and diffuse light in a restrained yet luminous palette. Rural structures trace cycles of decay and renewal, bearing subtle inscriptions of weathering as artifacts of both lived and imagined pasts. Gregory's work meditates on duration as inscribed across terrain and artifice, collapsing temporal distinctions to suggest that the land cannot be seen apart from the residues of its histories.
