Pollock’s Sensitive Chaos
series is directly inspired by the writings of Theodore Schwenk,
founder of the Institute for Flow and his theories about the repetitive
patterns in nature, which are caused by the flow of water. Pollock’s
work uses the all-encompassing medium of encaustic wax painting, which
she describes as a combination of elements of drawing, sculpting and
painting to explore the undercurrents found in our natural world.
In her Vanishing Landscape series, Pollock uses her encaustic method, combined with found imagery from times past. Obsolete machinery, foregone eras of bustling agricultural communities, and the changing uses of the landscape all call to mind memories of a time gone by. These two series come together to form Sensitive Chaos Redux, an exhibition that glows with a sensitivity to and understanding of the subtleties and beauty of our relationships to nature.
July's Upstairs at West Branch Gallery exhibition features new works by two of our talented West Branch artists, Marc Civitarese and Susan Wahlrab.
Marc Civitarese’s paintings, though based in the landscape tradition, are cerebral and visceral explorations of the relationship between man and nature. A departure from a purely realist depiction of the world, Civitarese’s work moves towards a more expressive sensibility. Susan Wahlrab’s unique approach to watercolor painting draws on her background in printmaking to build up imagery through the layering of colored washes and line work. Wahlrab's paintings reflect the continuing journey of her experience observing and intimately connecting to the natural world.
An event-filled night not to be missed!
