    GREGORY HAYES

    IN THE LIGHT
    ACRYLIC ON CANVAS
    48 X 48 IN

     

    “In my work I strive for exactness, but perhaps it is paradoxical that in striving for perfection – and never reaching it – it is there that you actually find it...It is the imperfect that becomes unique, the flaws that become interesting, the randomness that leads to new ideas.”
    - Gregory Hayes

    MATTHEW LANGLEY

    WHERE YOUTH AND LAUGHTER GO
    ACRYLIC ON CANVAS
    24 X 24 IN

     

    Matthew Langley works to demonstrate the power of gestural abstract painting through a practice of expressive brushstrokes, careful composition, and a deep understanding of color. Broken by thin, vertical streaks and transitions in hue and saturation, this work escapes rigidity, representation, and mechanical perfection in favor of an unobtrusive human touch through rough edges and visible brushstrokes.

    ON POLYMER CANVAS
    24 X 24 IN

    ACRYLIC, MOTHER OF PEARL, AND CRYSTAL ON CANVAS
    41 1/2 X 47 1/2 IN

     

    Light, in myth and in practice, gives life and is the foundation of many aspects of society; agriculture, time, creation mythology, and it has long been the practice of humans to attempt to define this life force through metaphysical means. Jeong Hyun Sook uses naturally iridescent materials, mother of pearl and crystal, to capture the eternity of this light on the canvas.

    Yoo Hyun creates his portraits through reduction, taking away small pieces of a blank sheet of paper to form iconic imagery. He then floats this image in front of a black splattered background, which is painted in one stroke using an immense calligraphic brush and provides both a color and material contrast to the hand cut portraits.

      Kyuhak Lee, Monument - Gaugin's Chair #5
  • Lee's unconventional artistic approach is a social commentary on the consumerism of modern civilization, and questions the intrinsic values of the millennial era. Using everyday materials as a gesture of upcycling, he utilizes Styrofoam as his base material best represents the vanity of contemporary culture, as it is fragile, flammable, and mostly air while still being non-biodegradable and difficult to dispose of.

  • "In the recent years, I have thought about the resemblance between plants and people and the way plants swarm out of the earth always seems to me like people going to work diligently. Sucking water out of the earth, feeding off the hot sun, and enduring the wind and rain does not seem that much different"
