Water Series

"Water Garden 2"

This is the second in the "water" series. I have also finished three smaller pieces in this series since. I'm happy to say The University of Kentucky Hospital has asked for two of them for their new facility.

Current Exhibit

Here are a few shots from the current two-person show at Logsdon 1909 Gallery in Chicago, IL, and the joint statement:

SUBTEXT

Information is a hallmark of our age. And whether intentional or imagined, every exchange of information carries multiple layers of implication and interpretation. In these two diverse bodies of work, found object constructions by Lucinda Alston Chapman and acrylic and Tyvek paintings by Philip High, both artists have lifted elements from the vocabulary of form and function we typically associate with written communication and reassembled them into new visual syntax. In this context, once familiar symbols become abstracted and are more about potential than point. From alphabet blocks and carved books to undecipherable script and dissected letter-forms, our graphic expectations are playfully subverted and reveal the deeper subtexts of imagination, perception and subjective relationships.
