LOS ANGELES, CA.- Merry Karnowsky Gallery
will
present a solo exhibition by Gregory Euclide, “What Was Still In The
Pause of My
Advance.” Euclide’s multi media paintings and sculptures are meditations
on
nature and the way in which humans experience the natural world.
Euclide’s
three-dimensional works begin with elaborate drawing-based paintings of
picturesque landscapes on paper, to which he adds found objects,
both
organic and inorganic. By-products of human consumption are recycled and
made
beautiful- Styrofoam becomes a layer of snow, bubble wrap becomes a
babbling
brook, discarded blue paint becomes the sky. The artist finds beauty in
the
superficial, and uses discarded materials to show the regenerative
properties of
nature. On view 10 April through 8 May.
