Iridescent by Andrew Irvine

“Iridescent” new works by Andrew Irvine Andrew Irvine is a ceramic artist and chemist who is inspired by the science behind ceramic materials and processing. In “Iridescent” he showcases his new experimental work with silver and bismuth lustre glazes using a raku fuming process. The refractive and reflective quality of lustre glaze colors result from a nano-layer of metallic crystals formed in the glaze surface during the fuming process, resulting in vibrant, elusive, otherworldly colors that burst to life when viewed in different light sources. These “glaze paintings” are truly emblematic of the modern evolution of ceramic art crossing over into the world of chemistry and material science. Artist reception: First Friday Sept. 2nd, 7pm–11pm Part of the South FIRST FRIDAYS Art Walk/ free & open to the public.

Orbiter by Nicole Linde

“Orbiter” new paintings by Nicole Linde Abstract paintings are a form of meditation for me; they are a way for me to let my energy flow during their creation. They help me to process and transform the chaotic randomness of constant information input into a tranquil abstract world on canvas. I strive to create a language of colors, shapes, symbols, and lines forming movement and rhythms. “Orbiter” is a series of paintings exploring the relationship of my loud outer-self orbiting my quieter inner-self. Nicole Linde has been creating in one form or another since she can remember. She loves to paint and has a BFA from the Minneapolis College of Art & Design. She lives in the South Bay with her husband, two children, and cat.   Artist reception: First Friday Sept. 2nd, 7pm–11pm Part of the South FIRST FRIDAYS Art Walk/ free & open to the public.
