SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Layers Revealed
DESCRIPTION:“Slowly\, the layers of our lives are revealed and once they are\, we fully come through\,” writes photographer and Korry Fellow Jerri Graham. In the new exhibition “Layers Revealed” at The Norwalk Art Space\, Graham invites artists Tim Holmstrom and Melissa Newman to explore the many cycles and layers of humanity\, nature\, beauty\, creation\, and decay. “Each frame of the camera\,” Graham states\, “is a fraction of a second of a life that will be lived for a time unknown. Within these fractionated layers\, we find our lives and ourselves.” Melissa Newman works in several mediums including clay. Newman writes\, “I see artists as ‘little gods’ who translate the world around them\, creating their own worlds in response.” Her sculpture\, reflecting an immersion in nature\, music making\, writing and traveling\, provokes multiple layers of interpretation and tension. According to Tim Holmstrom\, his work “excavates cultural and personal themes\, stories\, myths or delusions we often recycle and return to …out of habit\, comfort\, and nostalgia. The repetitions and patterns of decay\, rebirth\, and the entropy and chaos found in nature – our own nature as humans and artists. Accepting and embracing the beauty\, darkness\, twists\, folds\, scars\, and revelations borne of that process. It attempts to illustrate that most of all we all labor under a collective delusion that we are evolving\, escaping or progressing.”\nOpening reception Thursday\, December 15th\, 6:00 – 8:00pm with a cello performance by Sophia Vellotti and portrait sessions with photographer Jerri Graham in her TNAS pop-up studio throughout the evening. The Art Space Cafe will offer pastries and drinks for purchase. Artwork by fall semester students will be displayed in the Student Lounge Gallery on the lower level. “Layers Revealed” exhibition runs through February 9\, 2023 during regular gallery hours (Wed-Sun 9am-3pm). \n
