Included in the Open Spaces - Expanded Field

MALLIN AND CHARNO GALLERY -

JANE BOOTH creates monumentally scaled, color saturated dynamic paintings on raw canvas. She taps into a “felt sense of color and mark” and works in an unfettered manner, with no narrative, creating unbound visual slices of experience.

JOE BUSSELL describes painting as a balancing act. Color is a cohesive thread in his works that often utilize biological-like shapes that float in the white space of the canvas.

SARAH GROSS pushes clay to its limits in “Consumption.” This tile-based floor installation consists of over 500 red-glazed ceramic pieces, each covered with casts of my fingers, designed to resemble a red carpet from a distance. Physical barriers and paths will confront the viewer, creating spatial and visual disorientation. The viewer must question how they fit into the structure, making the act of looking more self-aware.

FRED TREASE uses photography to captures a moment and preserve for later contemplation. His images are extracted from daily life and after spending time in my head they eventually become photographs.

DESIREE WARREN paints and applies vinyl to street sign aluminum blanks. The works are designs of orzo shapes that flow across the metal. Warren received a BFA from the University of Kansas in 2005. She lives in Kansas City, Missouri, where she is the sole proprietor of Eighty Acres Art.
