A Cosmic Knot: Exhibition at Universe City Gallery in Ogden
This Friday night (April, 2, 2010) I’ll be opening a show of my work at Universe City Gallery in Ogden, UT (2556 Washington Boulevard). Gallery hours are Fridays, 5:00-8:00 and Saturdays, (NEW HOURS) 1:00-6:00 pm. or by appointment (call Benjamin Jennings at 801-458-8959).
The Labyrinth represents a puzzle that we are driven to solve. It also represents our stubbornness to accept that help when we need it most. The design of a knot is like a labyrinth, a maze of crossing lines and paths, eternally connected with no end and no beginning.
The show will feature work from the “Cosmic Knot” series which focuses on depictions of archetypal events and experiences, and how they relate to our own spiritual identities. These experiences are presented in symbolic form, incorporating tradition, myth, and culture into radiant compositions which attempt to harmoniously balance structured form with spiritual and chaotic energy.
The show’s main focus will be on a series of 9 works, each one exploring the symbolism of the knot through narrative compositions.
This is the first public showing of these works, and I’m excited to get them out in the public. Come out and support the Downtown Ogden’s First Friday Art Stroll and come and see the show.
If you are interested in previewing the works, more information can be found in the Fine Art Prints section of the web site.
