Nicole Rose Gelormino’s art zine “nobody’s daughter: new york” is a “visual autobiography”, capturing impressionistic views of the city in deep, inky watercolors. Skylines and shorelines occasionally emerge from the murky brushstrokes, but most of the scenes are drippy blurs, capturing feeling more than a concrete image. There is something slightly ominous about these landscapes — what is hiding in the wet shadows of this inner world? The clearest image is the final one: a pool of red — blood? — trickles out from underneath toes that barely creep into the frame, heading across the Triborough Bridge, pulled into the shadows, and then later, the skyline of the city. In the artist statement that closes the zine, Gelormino says: “I sought glimmers of myself in my environment” and that seeking feels present, palpable in the art.
