May: Now Showing: Fear and Lathing by Chris Herakovic

June: Women and Water by Antonino Giannetto 

Picture
An inspirational exploration of two themes, one of classical sculpture in clay and bronze representing women and the second in painted seascapes as a metaphor for women. The shared relationship of the two, loving and severe, soft and harsh, curved and angled. 

I portray the female figure in exaggerated voluminous forms, capturing moments in time that pay homage to past classical history from Egyptian figures to 20th century sculptors like Henry Moore and Alberto Giacometti.  Focusing on the torso, I intentionally allow the form and surface to be the story.
​
I first create a drawing of the figure in pen and ink then transfer the idea to clay. At that point I either keep the original in clay or have it cast to be poured in bronze for a limited edition series featuring different patinas.

Likewise the exaggerated forms of the seascapes, I allow the light on the water and the rhythmic motion of the waves and sky to convey the emotion of the image and the mood of the moment.  My memories of beachside locations that capture the essence of nature's natural beauty in watercolors, ink, pastels and oils. The moods of the seashore are constantly changing creating experiences that only water and light can convey, from sunrise to sunset to storms and calm clear skies.

I trust that the viewer connects with the shared experience of the natural beauty of a woman and our natural connection to water.
