Friday Favorite: Kevin Curry

This Friday’s featured artist is Kevin Curry and his Tripping Over the Same Stone series.
The intricacies in these works are amazing! I particularly love the combination of geometric shapes and planes and biomorphic protusions and dimensions: of man-made maps aggregated into rockforms found in nature.

Kevin writes:
"This body of work explores concepts of location and memory through the cataloging of commonplace rockforms that would normally go overlooked - reproducing both the visceral and vicarious experience through a variety of software combined with extensive and meditative hand-building techniques."

Kevin wrote to me: "The series is ongoing, they are immensely time consuming and I'm in the process of beginning new works as I write this."
