POP!exhibit showcases artists' unique styles with vivid colors, playful techniques, and social critique. The Pop Art movement allows artists to break free from traditional forms, exploring new expressions through everyday objects and bold color palettes. The exhibit features visually captivating and intellectually stimulating works that invite reflection on art, culture, and society's intersections. It celebrates creativity, imagination, and the evolving dialogue between art and the world.
Sarah's artistic journey is encapsulated in the vibrant and expressive medium of pop art glass mosaics. Inspired by the dynamic world of 1950s and 60s comic books. Her work is a homage to the era's distinct aesthetic and its powerful narrative style. What captivates this artist most about this genre is the over-exaggeration of emotions, which I bring to life through the intricate medium of glass.
With an affinity for composition, the framework for Aaron’s work adopts the purest form of mark-making…the line. Relying heavily upon both the circumscriptions and the gestural wanderings of linework, the pieces are a celebration of the scribble, with many of the works being composed of a single, continuous line. In conjunction with a nearly paint-by-number application of color and texture. The paintings—contrived of doodles—are childlike, while they also, simultaneously, contain an air of technical tightness and sophistication. The predecessors of the actual paintings―an accumulation of sketches―are occasionally created with a specific image in mind, but most of the pictures are not predetermined and are instead birthed simply by the swift impromptu movement of a pencil on paper. These sketches, in all cases, are not subliminal in nature; rather they are a conscious act of drawing.
Kim creates pop art portraiture on canvas flush with unusual combinations of color and technique. Her work integrates classical textile design and vibrant hues into custom layers of color, pattern and brilliance that transform familiar faces into living personalities of their own exuding character not previously there.
The show runs through October 16, 2024.
