August 16-December 8, 2019
A selection of new mixed media work by Scott Hunter and starring the color red. Work made by responding to the spark that comes from recognition of similarity or sympathy demanding placement above or below. Scaled up or scaled down, impatient, messy, explained, self-explanatory, self-congratulatory, framed and then finished. Work steeped in the mysteries of random pairings of images found in everyday detritus. Forging connections that might offer deeper introspection than a contrived plot when looking back upon them as if planned.

THE FOOL AT THE PRECIPICE
March 2018 - June 2018
Pittsburgh International Airport
The Fool at the Precipice illustrates an earthly and imaginary landscape that incorporates geometric and figurative elements in order to form a symbolic language of shape and color. The Fool, the small figure represented within the drawing, is poised on the edge of the unknown in a world of seemingly endless possibilities.This work symbolizes every traveler's potential at the start of a journey, and the sense of freedom experienced when entering uncharted territories.
Mance's work explores the interplay of the conscious and subconscious, and the relationship between nature and human experience. Her use of freehand drawing techniques and spontaneous mark making are implemented in order to avoid the restrictions that may come with self-consciousness and premeditation. Her unrestrained approach allows for a deeper focus on the ways in which we pass time, our idiosyncrasies, and repetitive rituals.

The exhibition features both two-dimensional and three-dimensional works that highlight intimate, joyful, and passionate moments. The pieces engage viewers in various forms of immediate participation, either through looking or physical interaction.

I See You, curated by Jen Melvin, features a range of contemporary portraiture from five members of the Associated Artists of Pittsburgh.
