Details of new mixed media work on display at CS Gallery

by at

This past weekend the CS Gallery, in Columbus Ohio put up new work as part of their December show. Along with photographic work I was able to showcase one of my newer mixed media works Terra Prima. This work uses discarded electronics to mimic the conceptual style of the relief sculpture by mounting the components on wood and then coating the entire pace in glossy white paint.
