Affectionate Facsimiles, Julio C. Williams
Affectionate Facsimiles, Julio C. Williams
Theses and Dissertations
The paintings in Affectionate Facsimiles are journeys into the expansiveness of color and memory via the accumulation of gestural action. Sporadic freneticism is used to archive desire and time and their relationship to identity. Thin and translucent layers are built up in bursts of intensity as palimpsests of intentioned labor.
Stations Or There Goes Nothing, Jeremy D. Lawson
Stations Or There Goes Nothing, Jeremy D. Lawson
Theses and Dissertations
Jeremy Lawson uses bright, expressive, abstract painting in conversation with minimalist sculpture to encourage a meditation on the death of the self, the potential for it's transformation, and the struggle to maintain the tools beyond language necessary to experience the sublime.
Light And Space, Lindsay M. Burke
Light And Space, Lindsay M. Burke
Theses and Dissertations
I make visceral images that are simultaneously elusive and confrontational. They are in dialogue with the historical tradition of figurative painting and drawing, but also aim to subvert those conventions. I want to catch and retain, as long as possible, the attention of my viewer by creating a familiar space that is slowly undermined. In my works the human body is dispersed in space; plants and tree parts are stand-ins for human desires, and gender is assigned to fragments of the body and to objects, then withdrawn.
