Join us one week from today, the third Friday in February, for an opening of new sculpture by Jeremy Thomas. Stemming from a pandemic-era urge to be “cleaner and lighter”, Thomas traded steel for canvas in his latest body of colorful work. Still using the process of inflation to very literally sculpt with air, Thomas coats his stitched design in resin, inflates the work, and then manipulates the form until each crease and fold are just so. Lastly, he leaves the work to harden and cure into its final form before the finishing surface treatments. Of the process, Thomas says, “There’s an immediacy to fabric, and it allows me to get shapes that I’ve always wanted to get with steel but couldn’t.” Learn more about Jeremy Thomas’ fascinating process and see the work in person one week from today. 

The exhibition opens with an artist-attended reception on Third Friday, February 17, from 6-8 p.m.; all are welcome.
