b o u n d to art

This past Wednesday I attended the opening of a new exhibition at Clark titled " bound." The exhibition shows the work of sculpture Diana Cherbuliez, painter Naoe Suzuki, and installation artist Marguerite White. All three artists, working in their different respective mediums, confront ideas around the term bound and the idea of bondage versus infinite possibility and space. One of the artists, Marguerite White, is a personal friend and I was thrilled to see her work in relation to the work of Diana and Naoe.

White's installation piece which consisted of charcoal drawings of taxidermy birds, chalk drawn boxes, and silhouettes, titled "Archive" was an interesting look at the idea go between life and death transitional space. Images that reflect birds in flight while frozen and death and restricted to the boundaries of the paper, were an interesting juxtaposition to the small delicate paintings of Suzuki of conjoined twins. Cherbuliez's bridges and other sculptures were mind boggling in their intricacy and obsessive quality. The opening was a great success and I was thrilled to go out with them after the show for drinks and talk more about their work and other generalities.
