The Belfry, Hornell, New York
April 10 – May 2, 2015
Artists’ Reception: Friday, April 10th, 2015, 6-9pm
The work of Mark Schatz and Andrea Loefke must be explored in a meandering, searching way. The everyday world is present and recognizable but re-made, new and curious. Shifts in scale and density can alternately engulf the viewer and then draw them into tiny, intimate detail. Cast-off objects find their place amid exquisitely handcrafted elements. Worlds that are equally haphazard and cultivated are gradually revealed.
Both Mark Schatz and Andrea Loefke are drawn to the tension between order and disorder. For their exhibition Evergreen and Gold, Schatz and Loefke pursue the potential for transformation within ideals of permanence and stability.
