Lichtundfire and the Artists present an INFORMAL ARTIST TALK & EXHIBITION WALK THRU with Q&A and Reception for SUSPENDED UNIVERSE, an exhibition of work in various media by five artists of different generations that highlights the endless artistic possibilities and layers of connectiveness of work created at the same moment in time.
Even though their visual sensibilities and aesthetics can differ greatly, their work is connected by a practice with both a cognitive and intuitive ability that goes beyond the generally expected and commonly known.
All work in the exhibition demonstrates great aptitude, facility, and a level of experimentation as well as distinctive care for the medium. The work ranges from smooth abstract surfaces to rough texture, conceived with nontraditional art materials. There is an obvious determination to excel in the chosen medium and to leave no path unchecked, nearly defying the laws of physics and common sense to make it work.
The show itself aims to go beyond the expected — combining mediums and artists with individual practices that may not be easily thought of as being naturally/usually put in context — while creating a clear conceptual and visual overlap with the individual artistic approaches as different as they may be.
