Ms. Ericka Lopez at Tierra Del Sol Gallery helps us imagine pottery which is beyond the idea of rigid, and instead imposes upon us plasticity to her forms with her Continuous Touch opening. The ability for the ceramic to be make so elastically configured, while still retaining use from its emptiness, gives the subject an […]

With an incredibly jovial flair, FriendsWithYou introduces us Japanese animation-style forms yet with an indelibly soft, taffy material with the mirthful exuberance with nevertheless ludicrously playful context at The Pit LA. It is in the plastine clay where the artworks are really resounding and are markedly different than pencil-lined and ink-drawn anime. Indeed, it would […]

Samuelle Richardson brings to light a refined concept of artisanal fabrication with her collection of birds, dogs, and lion heads at her opening with Keystone Art Space. The need to extend beyond simple plush dolls, to move towards more artful ideas – that of permanence which is more significant than the permanence of childhood innocence […]

In what can only be pronounced as quintessentially fine, Mr. Christopher Murphy introduces us a novel form of refinement in his capture of human life as an after effect of COVID-19 with his Tangle opening at Billis Williams Los Angeles. The plethora of multiplicity in human subject matter is its own commentary on the health […]

Ulrike Müller at Susanne Vielmetter provides a dutiful effort at better understanding geometrical form through a simplification of pattern, towards an idea of necessary and sufficient with her On Edge opening. It is in the sense of, not so much contrast, as it is boundary which gives us a measured sense of completeness. In such […]
