Corey Helford Gallery presents a four-artist exhibition with new artworks from Kelogsloops, Bao Pham, Sasha Ira and Josh Tiessen.
Kelogsloops (aka Hieu Nguyen)
series, 'Haven' is a continuation of his previous body of work,
'Breathe', and is a series of watercolour paintings that collectively
define the places we go to find escape and quietude. Placed throughout
the works are decorated elements of fragility which hope to capture a
sense that the paintings are all fleeting moments suspended in time.
Bao Pham's
series, 'The Rain', is a loosely connected narrative chronicling the
changes that have come Bao's way this past year. Rain brings life and
colour, but it can also bring devastation. It has been a great source of
joy, sadness, and most of all inspiration. Each piece is a reaction to
this theme.
Sasha Ira's
series, 'Undercurrents', came about from her own personal feelings and
the emotions that she was going through while she was creating the
pieces for the show, and even though she feels her work is more simple,
Sasha hopes people see the sincerity and love that goes behind each
piece.
Josh Tiessen's series, 'Streams In The Wasteland II', was inspired by Isaiah 43:20-22: "The wild animals honour me, the jackals and the owls, because I provide water in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland …yet you have not called on me, Israel." Josh has applied Isaiah’s prophecies, which reflect the nations’ lack of honour for their Creator, to civilizations across vast time periods, whose greedy desire for wealth and power ultimately led to their demise.
The opening reception is on Saturday December 14 from 7pm-11pm at Corey Helford Gallery, 571 S Anderson Street (Enter on Willow Street), Los Angeles, CA 90033 in Gallery 3, alongside the sixth annual Art Collector Starter Kit VI group show (featuring new 12" x 12" works by 100 artists) in the Main Gallery and Lauren Marx ’s solo show, 'Chimera', in Gallery 2.
The exhibition will be on view through January 18 2020.
