Pamela Flynn
Facing Time
Reception: Thursday, January 6, 6-8pm
Ceres Gallery is pleased to announce Pamela Flynn’s Facing Time, an exhibition of a new body of mixed media work. The exhibition marks Flynn’s second solo exhibit with Ceres Gallery.
Facing Time explores the notion of memento mori. The main gallery space features 16 mixed media oil paintings that allude to the passing of time. The motif used in these works is floral with an ever present black beaded circle slowly edging out the flowers. The remainder of the gallery space has fourteen small mixed media works that indentify the black circle as being fear. These pieces are darker and less joyful, with a final sculpture elevating fear onto a plinth.
Typical of Flynn’s work, each piece is process intense, allowing her to contemplate and to be one with the work as each piece takes form. Her use of hand placed seed beads on the oil paintings brings a three dimensional aspect to the work, giving them a sculptural relief quality.
Flynn gives no answers in her work, she only contemplates reality and asks the viewer to do the same.
The artist will be in the gallery by appointment.
