Exploration: Line/Shape/Form
We are busy hanging artwork at the gallery for the next exhibit titled “Exploration: Line/Shape/Form.” We hope to have everything in place by June 10 and encourage you to stop into the gallery to check things out. As before, there will be videos too and there should be something for everyone to enjoy.
Line – one dimensional; shape – two dimensional; form – three dimensional: all the essential components of artistry. Line is the basic building block having length but no width or depth. Thickness, direction and curvature are the characteristics that define line. Shape has height and width and whether fragmented or balanced, shapes contribute to the overall composition of a work. Form implies volume and mass and this adds to the realism and depth of a composition. How an artist chooses to create, allows the viewer to contemplate how line, shape, and form influence our perceptions, emotions, and experiences of the world around us.
The gallery is open and free to the public Monday – Friday from 12:30 to 4:00 pm or by appointment.
