Conrad
Conrad is an acrylic painting rendered on a dryer sheet—a surface both delicate and disposable—transformed here into a portal-like reflection. With layered strokes reminiscent of water, its fluidity is both suggested and held still, suspended beneath a high-gloss finish. The painting invites you to peer in, as though through a lens or a veil, into something both familiar and elusive.
The piece was conceived in response to the antique Italian gold frame it resides within—an object steeped in history and grandeur. This contrast between the opulent and the overlooked is central to Held Together: a conversation between material and meaning, fragility and permanence. Audrey becomes a quiet echo—mystical, reflective, and unexpectedly intimate.
Conrad Graiser invented the dryer sheets in the 1960s for his wife Audrey.
