“It’s strange, and fascinating, how we arrive at our art,” says Pomilio. “Inconceivable from the start but now, decades into my journey, it all makes perfect sense.”

Throughout his career, whether in oil on canvas or charcoal on paper, Mark Pomilio has plucked sense from life’s chaos by using the language of space and form: geometry. He considers how the natural world organizes itself under universal growth patterns and instead of seeking to visually depict those patterns, he creates using his own geometric systems of iterative growth. The work is both subtle and complicated, elegant and alive, and Bentley Gallery is pleased to debut brand new works as part of this exciting solo exhibition. 

Mark Pomilio features in solo museum and gallery exhibitions nationally and internationally, including Luxehill Museum in Chengdu, China; the Chapelle Saint-Louis de la Salapetriere, in Paris, France; Art Resources Transfer, in New York City; and LewAllen Galleries, Santa Fe. Originally from Philadelphia, Pomilio currently lives and works in Phoenix, Arizona. He is a Professor of Painting and Drawing at Arizona State University. 

We invite you to join us for an artist-attended opening reception the first Saturday in March;  Saturday, March 2, 1-3 p.m.
