IN THE WINDOWS
December 2020-February 2021
Remaking
by
Kathryn D'Elia
This exhibition is a collection of work created through gathered observations: a person, a moment of speech, shapes of a curtain, bodily structures, snow-blanketed objects. They are exaggerated, warped, stacked, built and lit to "remake" them into something new--to create something familiar, but on edge.
Further discoveries can be made between artworks. Bridges of color and value marry mold structures, into lung tissue, into the curving forms of an elderly woman's cheek--into a lrager and larger environment of association, one that reaches, leans, sucks, and grows, one that changes dramatically in theme and propensity once rearranged and reassociated.
Kathryn D'Elia was born and raised in Jacksonville, FL. She attended a high school for the arts before attending Flagler College to earn her BFA in 2011 and the University of Washington for her MFA in 2014. She moved to Minnesota in 2016 and currently resides in St. Paul. She enjoys her work teaching drawing and painting at Perpich Center for Arts Education in Golden Valley and adult painters at Artistry in Bloomington, MN.
