Hocking and Snider take over Canada
"Scott Hocking & Clinton Snider: RELICS & Other Works" at Artcite Inc., Windsor
June 25 through August 13, 2005: info@artcite.ca
This wall installation by Clint makes me think that Martha Stewart went into detroit and dipped found objects in shades of blues, pinks, yellows, and greens. I don't bring up Mrs. Stewart in a bad way....I really enjoyed this piece! The found objects took on a different identity when dipped in the thick painted colors. One can imagine the gritty, dirty pieces under the happy color scheme. I found that everyone interested in the wall started picking out their favorites and creating matches to put up on their walls. The objects ranged from underwear and socks to broken light bulbs and toothbrushes! The intricate detail of each individual piece was magnified by the solid color scheme. I think that I want the blue dipped underwear!
Scott Hocking prints
Hocking's huge found boat installation....ask Mr. Hocking about how they smuggled all of this across the border!
Snider's wall 
This is the RELIC installation that Snider and Hocking installed at the DIA. The piece is huge and took up a whole wall. It has quite a presence! It was fun to guess who did which boxes....there are differences that you can see if you know both artists' styles of work and color palette. I will leave the guessing up to you!
There is my underwear!
