Gallery Project

At times we detroiters can be lazy- especially when it is so cold out that your face freezes instantly when stepping outside! I was happily surprised how many detroiters made their way out to ann arbor to celebrate the splendid opening: BEAUTY/SUBLIME/INTENSITY at gallery project. At times it seemed to be almost shoulder to shoulder at the opening!

I can't give hatfield and the gallery project crew enough props for their curation and placement of this show! Everything flowed smoothly, from color palette which consisted of a lot of bright almost florescent colors -yellow, orange and pink to craft and refinement.

details...it is hard to get the camera to capture the layers of resin with paper, paint, stickers and glitter. this piece really is the sea!

Kevin Ewing - I really love kevin's work...and this piece is different than his traditional "painting-style" fur on canvas. I think this creature swallowed a gallery goer and I love that!

Kristin Beaver - I took a few pictures of this piece but I like this one with the man in leather standing next to the portrait. I feel like he could have something to do with her bruised demeanor!

You probably saw it in the press for the show. The piece “Hocus Pocus” is fresh off her easel and hasn’t been shown before. It is, however, part of a series that uses the same model. Some of those pieces have been shown.
