#quietstorm

This music was written for candlelight rooms, slow thoughts, and quiet romance. No lyrics. Just feeling.

Some music is meant to be heard. Some music is meant to be felt.

Smooth Jazz Romance lives in the quiet spaces — candlelight rooms, slow dancing kitchens, late-night thoughts, and soft conversations that don’t need words.

Tyese creates instrumental romance with gentle guitar warmth and calm emotional flow. No rush. No noise. Just mood, feeling, and connection.

If you love smooth jazz, quiet storm energy, or romantic instrumentals that feel personal — this music was made for you.

From Marianne Boesky Gallery is pleased to present Quiet Storm, an exhibition of new work by Danielle Mckinney (b. 1981; Montgomery, AL). In this ambitious new suite of oil paintings, Mckinney infuses intimate settings with radical beauty and striking emotional sway. Quiet Storm comes on the heels of the opening of Mckinney’s first institutional solo exhibition, Fly on the Wall, on view at the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin, Italy through October 2024.

Throughout her intimately-scaled portraits, Mckinney imagines solitary female protagonists—nestled in dream-like domestic interiors—in moments of leisure and respite. In the twelve paintings in Quiet Storm, Mckinney conjures a spiritual—and physical—mise-en-scène. As Mckinney’s figures lounge on velvety sofas, nap in pillow-strewn beds, drag on cigarettes—fully immersed in their own interiority—a storm brews. Rain falls softly on the roof, thunder rumbling in the distance, the smell of petrichor creeping through cracks in the windows. A quiet storm brews internally, as well. Tranquil but electrified, these women ground themselves, corporeally and emotionally, in this moment alone.

In pensive, cinematic portraits, painter Danielle Mckinney captures solitary female protagonists in moments of leisure and respite. Set in dream-like domestic interiors, Mckinney's figures sprawl across unmade beds, lounge in overstuffed armchairs, and splay on the floor in various states of undress. They smoke, read, and nap; immersed in their own worlds, ensconced in their own space, these women are consumed with rest, with pleasure, with leisure, with being. Hinting subtly at the busy routine of these figures' lives, Mckinney withholds their motivations, their thoughts, their comings and goings—in turn captivating viewers with narratives implied in elusive shadows and revealing details.
