Tiko Kerr, "Pink Tango," 2022

Tiko Kerr chose the title RESPAIR, which means “a return to hope after a period of despair” for his latest exhibition because it is a timely description of society’s move back to optimism after our pandemic experience.
Kerr is continuing his ongoing investigations into the subtleties of perception with his “shadow poems”, abstract plexiglass wall sculptures where shapes that are suspended in space explore the tension that exists in the space between the foreground and the background, what is seen and what actually exists.
The forms appear, drawing us in very closely, then dissolve, pushing us way out, giving the illusion that the pieces are living, breathing.
These works share a profound commonality with the lyrical improvisations of jazz and poetry.
