Nature: Structure and Transformation
A Sculptural Installation by Kathleen Vance
The artistic process is an arduous method of creative transformation — from the fermentation of an idea to the birth of the genuine work. To achieve this it is required of the artist to maintain an equilibrium between the rational control of deliberately executed activity, and the instinctive spontaneity of intuitive freedom. For the artist, this process is his Raison d'être, for it confirms the gravity and centrality of art in his life.
At the core
of each artist's life there is a private place where the artist is
alone with a wordless dialogue. This private
place is the uterus
of
the artistic
'breakthrough' in which
all the liminal ideas and themes of the artist's singular obsessions
are concealed and nurtured, never open to general scrutiny. Art is
the materialization
of these
thoughts, and whatever the vocabulary of means, the breakthrough
must emerge from its silent embodiment as an object of
public gaze. SINGULAR OBSESSIONS is an exhibition which will
celebrate and examine
the imagery and themes of each artists' personal introspection's,
and convey to public view the persistent inner designs, and abstrusive
but cherished pre-occupations of these imaginative and irresistible
manifestations.
