After an unbelievable amount of work as well and support from friends and family helped my show came together and has thus far been well received. Thank you to all to made it to see my show and thank you to all those whom assisted me in getting it to where it is. Being the 3rd show I've had and by far the most work I've been able to show at once, this has been a great experience that I think has changed my mind a bit about trying to put my work out there. Also I have received great input from the public about my work which is something I rarely get outside of my circles of friends.
Gallery night is this Friday and the anticipation is pretty tremendous but if its have a much fun as Wednesday than it'll be great. Gallery night openings from 5:00-9:00 p.m. and the show is open to the public Tues. - Sat., 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. till mid may.
My artist statement:
Duvet
Memories can keep us warm but leave us in a blur of what no longer is. Always enveloping us, the things sought after and lost are no longer tangible yet something lingers. Whether pleasant or regrettable, we’re always left with the fragments of what has been. Somehow the moments passed come back to us, sometimes clearer, but more often obscured by how we wish to view them. That impulse to keep some semblance of it alive can feel fulfilling, but only gives us more of the same, wearing on till our soul fades.
Enveloped as I am, there is a need to place those moments beside myself and find something more then I know how to define. And now that the happened scene is dead and gone, I am ready to stop dwelling on states of mind I once had. While still holding these things dear, I see what I missed by reliving what’s gone once more. After searching for meanings, lessons I never learned, and letting the life I wanted pass me by, I’m finally coming out of the blur, no longer needing to be shrouded in that me.
