Brian Cypher, Tamara Gonzalez and Meg Lipke “Bullet in the Brain”
Brian Morris Gallery
This event has ended.
“The bullet is already in the brain; it won’t be outrun forever, or charmed to a halt. In the end it will do its work and leave the troubled skull behind, dragging its comet’s tail of memory and hope and talent and love into the marble hall of commerce. That can’t be helped. But for now Anders can still make time. Time for the shadows to lengthen on the grass, time for the tethered dog to bark at the flying ball, time for the boy in right field to smack his sweat-blackened mitt and softly chant, They is, they is, they is.” -Tobias Wolff, Bullet in the Brain
Through personalized abstract language these artists’ ideas become manifest. The work engages the mysteries of our existence: Who are we? Why are we here? How do we relate to the world and bring order from chaos? Perhaps the balance has tipped too far toward chaos, and maybe the bullet is “already in the brain ready to do its work,” but we too can still make time, and these three artists help to show us the way.
