Josephy Center Exhibit Opening: Functions of MedIum

Please join the Josephy Center for Arts and Culture for the opening reception of Function of Medium Works by Auburn Isaak and Kevin Boylan.  Working in different mediums, using techniques specific to their own style; Kevin and auburn have created a unique collection that displays their most recent expiration's of materials while referencing the environments that surround them.

About Artist Kevin Boylan:  “Through the years, my work has evolved from my beginnings as a potter to my current stage as a mixed media sculptor and glassblower.  Exploring new mediums, learning new techniques, and examining my  most immediate surrounds; my process almost always results with a non-objective, abstract form.  

The common thread is that my work is a personal journal.  While my hands are creating an object that I’ve overthrough without sketching; my mind is contemplating ideas, relationships, past experiences, or daily occurrences in my life.

Because I use internal reflection of sorts to create my work, I consider it to be self-portrait work, and my latest body of work has become more figurative.”

About Artist Auburn Isaak: “I draw my color palette from nature in its most elusive form; notes defined realism in its physical form, but as I interpret an depict it in my mind. This allows me to use abstract as a function to create the landscape that surrounds me. I choose to incorporate my movement, discoveries, and intuition during my painting process. The paint becomes the medium that inter-operates the human experience and a record of that occurrence.”
