No Moon Tonight (just the light from other people’s windows)
Painted from life, Brogan Bertie’s portraits in NO MOON TONIGHT (Just the light from other people’s windows) are full of fast brushstrokes, flicking paint, an urgency that reveals a painfully human desperation to capture a moment where every mark made measures the moment passing.
Family, loved ones and acquaintances make up this show, exposing the same truth: Bertie’s desperation for connection, alongside a deep hunger for and investment in people—something beautiful, insatiable, and obsessive.
