“GLYPH” features a collection of paintings by Terry Brett & ceramic sculptures by Jan Richardson.
Terry Brett has recently been creating large monochrome paintings using organic materials and deep relief, sometimes carving into a thick plaster surface or building layers of heavily textured burlap fabric. The composition is often a grid-like pattern, relying on a variety of materials to create dramatic light and shadow in an earthy color palette.
Jan Richardson’s ceramics date back to 1960, but her love of craft goes back to a young childhood surrounded by creative women. In her current body of work, her early love of indigenous art and geometric pattern have culminated in a collection of vessels designed to honor and echo that ethos. Jan’s newest works are no longer simply functional objects, but vessels to carry the imagination to the farthest reaches of the universe.
These new works will be featured in the upcoming exhibition at Leslie Curran Gallery.
