"The Build Up" Exhibition
Fowler Project Space
This event has ended.
With source materials including found objects, walls, the studio space, and new home construction, each artist is drawn to the built environment with a curiosity about how things are made and how to surpass functionality. There is a sense of attachment to breaking down and reshaping personal objects in order to create a new relationships to them, as well as a studied approach to the labor of literally building walls, first with stones, then with pencil. Some of the work translates photographic imagery to sculptural object, or referent to drawing, as a way to discuss the possibilities of dimensionality in a print. Site-sensitive installation responds to the gallery's unique history, by transferring images directly onto the walls and floorboards of the exhibition space. The artists bring the process of building into the studio and the exhibition space to address this primary human motive.
