MATTER OF TIME

On View November 12th, 2021 - January 15th, 2022

Time is simultaneously an intangible concept and the governing factor of all tangible phenomena. It is a universal construct that has been exhibited in every culture and language throughout history, yet seemingly impossible to grasp.  While experiencing another person's perception of time is certainly unattainable, these 6 six artists featured in MATTER OF TIME attempt to share their perceptions of their reality.  Through painting, sculpture, photography & mixed media, these artists address the complex, nonlinear sequence of how time is perceived, measured, and experienced.

This group exhibition features the work of Kim Ferrer, Karin Schminke, Peter Illig, Julie Anderson, Mark Penner Howell, and Doug Haeussner

Kim Ferrer

KIM FERRER’s work is the product of a process that relies on impulses, desires, patience, surrender, intuition and trust.  Listening, responding and allowing herself to not know, she falls open to a practice of creating that is actually an act of finding. She sees time as eternal, and how it is perceived changes throughout a lifetime. It can be viewed as a continuum forming a fragmented line and something that is measured, given, taken, lost and found. Silently, time has the power to shift our perceptions of relationships, the future and the past.

Karin Schminke

KARIN SCHMINKE’s work uses simultaneous viewpoints to explore the natural world within the framework of temporal dualities: a moment that can be both short and long, memories that can be both linear and random. Our perception of time is mutable, and Schminke’s work aims to address this notion.

Peter Illig

Knowing that time is relative and that in the human mind, time can be manipulated PETER ILLIG uses his art as a time machine. He mines the past for images that still have currency in the present to produce anachronisms. Without being nostalgic, Illig feels such imagery gives the paintings a sense of the elasticity of time.

Julie Anderson

With a background in biology, images relating to science and nature are consistently present in JULIE ANDERSON’s work.  Her latest wall sculptures study how time affects the physical attributes and ecology of plants and animals.  She explores how these beings move, grow, age, and die.  Veins deepen, leaves shrivel, and flowers turn to seeds relinquishing their offspring to nourish a new generation of birds or mammals.

Mark Penner-Howell

In his latest series, MARK PENNER-HOWELL is incorporating the passage of time as an element in the creation of the work - not to comment on time as a concept, but utilizing it as a medium.  The paintings are a palimpsest of messages built up on reclaimed lumber, which were installed around town in places where they would accumulate graffiti. Later, the panels were brought into the studio and additional text and images were added to tease some beauty out of the noise and chaos of daily life.

Doug Haeussner

DOUG HAEUSSNER’s goal is to reveal how interesting the ordinary can be by offering a fresh perspective on the beauty, ugliness or absurdity of the world around us.  His latest series speaks to fleeting moments and how time escapes us, incessantly flying by in an instant. Small, precious moments come and go with the blink of an eye.  The complexity and beauty of an otherwise modest sequence are often lost to the perpetual pace of life.
