Epic in length, "Procession with Exits" is a monumental panorama filled with vignettes encompassing subjects which have appeared throughout the artist's oeuvre. Taking her cue from ancient landscape scrolls, time and action unfold left to right. The viewer passes through a post-apocalyptic land populated by past drawings and present motifs, barren mountains, tumultuous seas, as well as swimming and drowning men ending in a final drawing of a crowd, heads turned upwards towards a beam of light. Transforming the landscape from hell into heaven, O’Neil bridges the gap between the two realms, uniting uncertainty with hope, replacing loneliness with kinship. Procession with Exits was included in O’Neil’s mid-career survey at the Fort Worth Modern.
