I’m very happy to announce that RESIDUAL ARTIFACTS, my next solo show, will be one month from today! @basicinquiry (details below) @basicinquiry 1011 Main Street 6PM–10PM Free wine and cocktails! Spread the word and I hope to see you all there! “Residual Artifacts” a the continuation of my previous show “Residual Reveries”. It is creating without pre-concieved outcome in mind, art for exploratoratories sake. It is seeing the work we are making as a purely experimental act (leaving much up to chance): and the feelings captured during the process. The creative act. “I believe that sketching is the most human act - a deliberate pause emits the busyness of living. It invites us to observe, to feel, and to honour what passes by unseen. In every sketch, we capture an echo of that moment – not frozen, but alive, continuing to live long after we expire.” “Art to me is a work in progress, and I create my best work when I see the pieces I am working on as creative experiments. If you believe there is no right or wrong answer, that the art we create is not good or bad, that there are no stakes, that’s when we thrive in what we make. The act of letting go, and giving into play. That’s what really matters” – Julian Thom DM to I quite about all works from my previous solo show “Residual Reveries”, see pricelists, or what’s available.
