Held's paintings are an investigation into the timbre of the physical world. Painted in egg tempera over a reinforced linen panel, raised layers of paint resembling topographical maps with pulsating forms create a conflation of drawing and painting.

Held has been in numerous exhibitions internationally and in New York, including the Islip Art Museum Long Island, The Painting Center, New York, Sideshow Gallery, Brooklyn, Christiane Nienaber, New York, Artefact/Galleria Pardo, Italy. Her work is included in the public collections of the MTA Arts for Transit, The International Artists Museum in Tel Aviv, Bayerisch Landesbank in New York and the Landesbank Schleswig-Holstein Girozentrale in New York. Held's work has also been mentioned in The New York Times. For more information please contact the gallery.
