Kebe Fox: Bird’s-Eye Jim Caron: Now Leah Parrent: Organomercurial
February 28th - March 29th, 2008 Opening Reception Saturday March 1st 6-10pm
KEBE FOX - BIRD'S-EYE Thick intricate layers of paint, dark undercoats
and raised canvas alongside a playful touch add subtle avenues Interpretation is open to the viewers own distinct experiences and impressions. In addition, Fox has assembled one of his large "mood installations" to allow the themes to "fully breathe and emote."
JIM CARON - NOW "My images are created from a compulsion to do so, that is what defines me as an artist. I seek no acknowledgment or agreement from others. My work is not a contrived effort to gain acceptance and success nor is it an exclamation of some subjective truth that I would have others endorse. Whatever guides my hand is an honest expression
that seeks to consummate a bond with that which I cannot reach or define.
My efforts to visualize what may truly guide one's life is a conjecture
worthy of much contention, but my work is a look at the world with
closed eyes and a willingness to face a truth that I cannot know without
it destroying who I am today."
LEAH
PARRENT - ORGANOMERCURIAL These pieces play with the idea of commitment to change or being emotionally impelled to change. Each piece exists to evoke the contemplation of universal experiences that lead to these life transitions in thought or circumstance, and ultimately change our structural composition. In this journey where there is little of certainty, it is most necessary to find that which is intrinsically at core, in order to ready each being for what is coming next.
