Opening Reception: April 6 from 2-4pm.
This month we are excited to present the artwork of Jonathan Petersen. Jonathan is a self-taught artist who primarily makes carvings and paintings. His recent works are collectively defined by fine line brush work that he often paints on found wood and metal.
The meaning behind his work ranges depending on the piece; however they are often inspired by dreams and nature. He will sometimes create work within a set perameters. For instance, Jonathan created a series of carvings in the time span of his break at work, out of wood pallets and then refined the pieces at home. He also made carving while train hopping across Canada which have a rough quality to them because of the movement of the train.
Jonathan has a unique ability to transform found objects into visceral landscapes and objects with his painting style and attention to detail.
Artist talk: April 20 at 2pm. Free and open to the public.
This is an exhibition everyone will love!
