Permanent Gallery EXHIBITION Recuerdos Don Fritz DATES: MAY 20 - AUG 27 YEAR: 2023 Previously on view in the Permanent Gallery < Back OVERVIEW ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ! Widget Didn’t Load Check your internet and refresh this page. If that doesn’t work, contact us. My work is rooted in the experience of growing up in the 50s in Germany and the United States. This was a time of innocence, faith in the future and an underlying anxiety of nuclear annihilation. A time when fairy tales and old-world myth intermingled with the promise of magic of science, with its rocket ships and the power of the atom. I select images and icons from the 50s and place them in juxtapositions that resonate with the duality of innocence and malevolent power. Children's books, toys, and other artifacts from my past are an inspiration and resource for my symbology. My experiences in Japan have also been important in shaping my current work. I love the way text is applied to image in strange, and often random ways there -- particularly when the image has been appropriated from Western culture. The duality of ancient and modern life coexisting produces startling content. One of the cornerstones of my work is the layering of images. The finished pieces have a tactile quality that makes them seem as if they were constructed out of velvet or felt. This is achieved through layering and painting out, or erasing, images to create depth -- both literally and conceptually. This often unconscious process of selecting and deleting images produces a palimpsest like surface. Beneath this surface lie the sometimes sinister, sometimes comical clues needed to unravel secret codes of content within the work. There are hidden images that both confirm and contradict assumptions we have made about interpretation. These artworks function as a reminder of the world we were promised as children, and a visual record of my search for understanding in that world as an adult. "Gravity" Previous Next

Cowell Gallery EXHIBITION The Big Red Chair Project Eve Page Mathias DATES: MAY 6 - AUG 13 YEAR: 2023 Previously on view in the Cowell Gallery < Back OVERVIEW ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ! Widget Didn’t Load Check your internet and refresh this page. If that doesn’t work, contact us. "There once was a big red chair in my living room. My sweet old dog, Luna, enjoyed sitting up on the back of it so she could look out the window. Luna passed, and the chair got old, too. Because this chair means a lot to me, I pushed it into my studio. It is a reassurance as I work that mv little one is still there and that there are cherished triends to come. This chair anchored me. It has become a symbol of where my place in the world was during the Covid crisis. Now, when I ask someone to sit in the red chair, it "connects the dots" between those missing moments when was separated from mv friends and loved ones. Then we all emerged and came back together. When it was okay to see folks and the mist cleared, we were allowed to see each other again... I began a project of portraits of my dear female friends. Why only women? I think it was because I missed them the most. I puzzled over this because also treasure my triends who are male, and certainl) would like to paint them. Maybe it is because there is the yearning - the aching of the soul - that I perceive as a part of the female psyche. This was a good place to start because it is where resonate as a female person. But I also missed myself as an individual, a unique human being. During Covid one was only a cipher, not someone interesting. We were all just "Things" with masks who might possibly be a spreader of the disease. or worse, die. We were reduced to robots doing our jobs on a digital platform, being parents who couldn't permit our expressions of love because we were afraid we could make our children sick. I taught at the college level and suddenly had to reduce my persona into a voice on a computer monitor. This is not healthy for a person who thrived by human contact. Thus, the Big Red Chair Project began." Eve Page Mathias https://www.tritonmuseum.org/bigredchairproject "My Queen" Previous Next
