Otero's studio is located in a remote area upstate from New York City, where old-growth trees and the waters of the Hudson River are just steps from his studio door. Within the abstract fields of Willow of Mine (2020), the colors and forms of the natural world seem to grapple playfully with unmistakable echoes of a human hand, suggesting anything from calligraphic markings on an ancient and overgrown rock wall, to the rusted, wheat-pasted, and graffitied walls of an alley on the Lower East Side.Provenance
