I enjoyed an art-filled weekend at Navy Pier for SOFA Chicago.
Brand new work in my Reflect/architectural series was shown by Ken Saunders Gallery.
These urban abstractions are inspired by our everyday experience of moving through the city. Light and shadow play across architectural surfaces offering moments of surprise and discovery. I am inspired by the vibrancy and information I notice in the world around me. The fluidity and constant transformations in the natural world contrast with the predictable segments and hard transitions I find in the cityscape. Light connects these two worlds, bringing both clarity and complexity to the everyday.
Susie Silbert presented work on a number of artists in the current New Glass Now exhibition at Corning. Susie talked about my previous career in healthcare as a speech language pathologist and how it informs my exploration of vocabularies of architecture and urban spaces.
