Launching this special program is Dichromatic Allure, the first of our duo show series. Featuring the complementing works of artists Abigail Box and Terry Batt, the show is a visual feast of colliding colors, a juxtaposition of surreal, precision aesthetic with a spontaneous, captivating play of light and perception.
About
In Box’s paintings, daylight is explored using the structure of perspective. Box alters and toys with the structure so as to highlight the way our eyes see. The result is a mesmerizing bloom of diffusing light that seem to blush and glow in different angles. In Batt’s dark and muted images, black is used to highlight the precision of symmetry, the hypothesis of balance and imbalance, of life, of identities and of aesthetics. When shown together, the works interact with one another, amplifying the dichromatic contrasts and magic each artist casts in the opposing ends of the light spectrum.
