Overview
Transformer proudly presents REFLEXANCE, featuring recent work and site specific installation by Virginia Blanca Arrsueño, Kristin Beal and Lucy Norman Spencer.
Furthering Transformer's mission to support emerging artists at all stages in their careers, REFLEXANCE unites three generations of women artists from the region who incorporate ready-made textiles and household goods such as salt, cotton sheets and plastic strips to create subtle, ethereal works. The artists' manipulations of natural and synthetic materials investigate the play of light and shadow, the creation of illusions, and self-reflection through the delicate balance of organic and fabricated constructs. Applying hand craft techniques to found and inexpensive materials, the work also comments on art-making in an age of large scale, computer generated art works with overgrown budgets that sometimes clash with the basic desire to create and the increasing need to simplify.
