Artomatic Floor 7

July 12, 2009

Artomatic is over, I’m going to deinstallation tomorrow, and I never even got to cover all the floors, because there’s just so much.  Anyway, here are some photos from one more floor.

Large work on paper by Eve Hennessa (http://hennessa.blogspot.com/). Sorry about the quality of this image, I managed to fail to get it square. She also does strange figurative sculptures out of aluminum foil.

“Lake Series” photos by Susannah Pegg: http://www.susannahpegg.com/

I sort of short-changed photography due to personal bias – I kept being drawn to painting and drawing, but there was a lot of good photography there that I should have looked at closer.

Large portraits by Asad Walker – I like how he captured expression while  using a single-color – these are eye-catching. Unfortunately his webpage doesn’t seem to work.

Mixed media work by Mei Mei Chang: http://meimeichang.com/home.html This image seems almost like a stream of consciousness, if that makes any sense.

I love these paintings by Valentine Wolly – they show images with weird visual distortion – but unfortunately I can’t get a good picture with all the glass (wow, that framing job must have been a real pain!) so you might want to go to her website : http://www.valentinewolly.com/index.htm

By Jody Isaacson and Andrea Hull – the top piece is a print, the bottom piece is made of wax.

A very subtle oil still life by James Halloran

Print by Meaghan Busch – again, the reflections get in the way, here is her website, though I can’t find this piece on it: http://meaghanbusch.com/home.html

Work by Novie Trump – again, I like this bcause I find it subtle – guess my vocabulary isn’t too creative today.

One of  Tim Tate’s reliquaries – not sure I need to post one because they already get a lot of attention, but they are so cool.
