Lina Rodriguez takes her cues from things like a painting of a cow. "In the 1963 painting, a placid Holstein is framed against a night sky marked by wispy clouds and a full moon. The effect should be pastoral, but instead it is faintly alarming. 'There’s this calm, blue, unnerving light,' Rodriguez observes. 'It captures this idea of uncertainty that I see in his paintings. You see something that is quotidian but there is a threat.'"
