A Return to Basics: Ideas Driven by Materials Exploration

Exhibition Website

Nov 5 2017 - Jan 14 2018

Artist's Statement:

Basic training for the arts centers on gaining command of a medium. With practice that synergy between tools, materials, and the practitioner becomes intuitive and predictably automatic, but often leads to mannerism and repetition in performance. The work in this exhibition represents, for me, a return to the basics of what can happen when the artist challenges him or herself to break patterns in a search for the potential offered by tools and materials and their influence on idea production. Two thirds of the works have been created during the last year.
