"A Gathering of Materials"

The show runs through October 2. Additionally, Gibson will be giving an artist talk on Saturday, September 26th from 3:00 to 4:00 pm. All events are free to the public. Please come an enjoy great art by local artist, and good snacks!

Gibson's work is comprised of her personal collections of found objects and her manipulations and taming of metal and wood. She states that “materials tell a narrative through their feel, weight, patina, history or former use.” Her solo exhibition at Cerulean focuses on two concepts: balance and containment. Gibson will display a series of “pocket books” to which she references, “the junk that we carry around with us for whatever reason.” Additionally, she will be exhibiting a series of works which she states that “deal with balance between weights, decisions, scale or visual assumptions. This being in reference to the contradictions and choices that confront our daily lives.”
