Standing Woman (Woman/Hand Over Heart) comes from an important moment in Frey’s career when she was experimenting with techniques that emphasized the surface in dramatic ways. Frey used the large figure as a kind of armature for her painting and drawing. In this piece she applied color and texture in ways that resemble the work of Bay Area abstract expressionists, and figurative artists like Sonia Gechtoff and David Park. The resulting messy, gritty surface also evokes the early work of San Francisco Bay Area artists Joan Brown and Jay De Feo.
