Images of <i>Facade</i>, a <a href="http://futureretrieval.blogspot.com/2015/06/collaborating.html" target="_blank">collaboration</a> with <a href="http://www.jordantate.com/#2016" target="_blank">Jordan Tate</a> - curated by <a href="http://dennygallery.com/" target="_blank">Elizabeth Denny</a>. <i><a href="http://dennygallery.com/artists/future-retrieval/" target="_blank">Facade</a></i> was shown at <a href="http://www.springbreakartshow.com/" target="_blank">SPRING/BREAK Art Show</a> this March in NYC, and at <a href="http://www.herald-dispatch.com/news/marshall_university/marshall-s-birke-art-gallery-to-open-spring-semester-with/article_0f7315ee-4e40-53a5-bd6d-e0970940031a.html" target="_blank">Marshall University, WV</a> in January. A mixed media approach to an European garden, <i>Facade</i> exposes the structures of artifice like an exploded diagram showcasing the trompe l'oeil and the foundation that supports it. A high/low rendering allows 3D to be flattened and 2D to be expanded. We are playing on these expectations while dismantling them at the same time, trying to recreate historic scenes that never existed. </div>

We are currently working on a series of vases, made in collaboration with painter <a href="http://amandavaldez.com/" target="_blank">Amanda Valdez</a>. This collaboration started at <a href="http://watershedceramics.org/" target="_blank">Watershed</a> this summer, and will continue over the next couple of months. The idea is combine both of our painting styles along with thrown forms to create one off pieces that reflect our individual practice but read as something in between art and design. These are just a couple examples of the first pieces made at Watershed.</div>

<a href="http://futureretrieval.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-beginning.html" target="_blank">Last summer</a> while at <a href="http://www.bemiscenter.org/" target="_blank">Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts</a> we made an ode to 2001:A Space Odyssey with <a href="http://chrisvorhees.com/" target="_blank">Chris Vorhees</a>, who is an amazing fabricator and artist. The final project is a monolith on wheels, that opens to reveal a room in an alternate future. This piece was shipped from Omaha to Cincinnati, and we haven't shown it to anyone. We are very excited to announce that finally have a show lined up at <a href="http://www.sculpturecenter.org/" target="_blank">The Sculpture Center</a> in Cleveland opening in mid September, where we will debut this piece along with several new works that have a space(ey) feel.Katie Parkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00667733798528707883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126735361925061498.post-40321589253392370042015-07-11T15:39:00.000-04:002015-07-11T15:39:02.534-04:00vacation<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
