MURMUR

The Rymer Gallery opens the New Year with an exploratory show of what it means to be alive. Paintings and sculptures on exhibit will all deal with the issues that bind humanity together through our common corporeal existence. The two artists featured for the month are mixed media artist Jordan Eagles, from New York, and sculptress Amy Hamblin, from Seattle, WA. This extraordinary show will be on exhibit through Saturday, January 31st.
The hauntingly beautiful quality of Jordan Eagles artwork belies his most primal medium: blood. Wash after wash of blood is captured and preserved between numerous layers of clear resin, and mounted on the wall in translucent Plexiglas. The luminous effect of Jordan’s art is both mesmerizing and transfixing. As a viewer, it is difficult to turn away from, as our relationship to the art is on a cellular level. Beyond the medium Jordan chooses, what most viewers will find shocking is the artwork’s profound beauty.
Amy Hamblin’s woven, three-dimensional works read like a topographical map of the body politic. Her mesh and copper wire exoskeletons and organs explore the surface of the skin as a portal into our very being. She has disassociated body parts into stand-alone iconic objects. The organs are examined one step further by scooping all the mass out of them, so that only the odd husks remain. The portals and bumps and valves and stems remain on the sculptures, an anti-intuitive design inspired by that prankster, nature.
