KOBALT GALLERY- DEBORAH MARTIN Narrow Lands 7/4-15

KOBALT GALLERY presents
 DEBORAH MARTIN
NARROW LANDS
With Poems by Nicky Sa-eun Schildkraut
JULY 4-15, 2014
RECEPTION JULY 4, 7-9PM
 
574, 2014 Oil on canvas, 36x36, N.Truro, MA

Kobalt Gallery is pleased to present NARROW LANDS new work by Deborah Martin with poems by Nicky Sa-eun Schildkraut.  The Artist will present new paintings as part of the ongoing series "Narrow Lands."  Los Angeles poet Nicky Sa-eun Schildkraut will present accompanying poems inspired by Martin's paintings.

At the intersection of memory and disintegration lie the homes and built structures of the "Narrow Lands" - an architectural geography of history and time along the Outer Cape.  Along this thin spiral of land and water, the shifting of sand and silt and spray create inexorable change in natural terrain - a relentless force of transformation that likewise erodes, reclaims, and reconstitutes the people and structures of Provincetown.

In the series titled "Narrow Lands" Martin explores the decomposition and erosion of built structures on the Outer Cape - homes that have been historically maintained, as well as those abandoned for reclamation by nature or by sale of the land. 

Martin's work dwells within a compositional formality - a visitor's sidewalk stance that captures the essentially public vista of driveway, yard, front porch, yet her portraitist's eye conjures an emotional complexity nearly operatic in scope: within the silent, vacant architecture, human drama seems to exist more powerfully in allusion.

RECEPTION JUNE 27, 7-9PM

 

Kobalt Gallery is pleased to present EVOLUTION, Conny Hatch’s 4th solo exhibition at the gallery. Continuing her exploration of creating sculpture from found materials, in this new body of work Hatch moves toward a more abstracted interpretation of the natural world.
In EVOLUTION Hatch is influenced by the art forms of the Inuit and other native cultures where nature, particularly creatures, were rendered in tribute to the wonder of life.
