Artist's Reception: Oceanic - Kinetic and Abstract Works by Chris Cole.
Chris will be unveiling his newest kinetic piece as well as several new paintings. April 7-30, 2011.
Please join us for an Artist's Reception April 7 from 6-9 pm.
By exploring the relationship between the industrial and natural worlds, human progress and humanity’s excesses, Chris creates sculptures and paintings which depict immense beauty overlaid with an industrial superstructure. Chris welds and constructs intricate, metal, and kinetic sculptures which portray the regression from mechanism back to organism. As a departure from the laws of physics Chris is able to investigate a blend of organism and mechanism through is acrylic and oil paintings.
“So many of the seemingly surreal organisms that exist in the wild are both mirrored and threatened by humachinery.” -Chris Cole
