Laura Petrovich-Cheney, Relative Confusion, 2013, Salvaged wood

January 9– February 2, 2014

Opening Reception: Thursday, January 9, 6-9pm
Artist Talk: Thursday, January 9, 6:30pm

The work in Block Party evokes the past through its use of colors that mark a particular decade—e.g., ‘80s pastels, and ‘70s avocado kitchen green. The faded colors and tattered surfaces of the wood are a nostalgic glimpse into the past. The visual history of the salvaged wood – the chipped layers of paint, the nail holes, the grain- tells a story.
