William Griffiths

No Illusions

 

March 31 - April 24, 2010

Artist reception: Friday, April 9, 6 - 9pm


p|m Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition of work by William Griffiths.  

 

No Illusions is a reference to the role photography plays in William Griffiths’ abstract paintings.   Griffiths takes photographs during the course of his day, logging a myriad of visuals that spark a personal, emotional reaction.  He strives to imbue the feeling evoked by the photographs into abstract paintings by creating complex textures with acrylic paint and polymer.   Over the last ten years Griffiths’ canvases have come to be characterized by their multi-layered assemblage:  loose skins of chromatically charged polymer, gouged surfaces, and re-purposed acrylic shrapnel.

 

William Griffiths has been represented by p|m Gallery since 2004. He lives and works in Niagara Falls.

 

p|m Gallery is located at 1518 Dundas Street West, half a block west of Dufferin Street.

 

We’re open: Wednesday - Saturday 11am - 5:30pm

Opening Tonight: William Griffiths, 6-9pm

Suki Falkner is a boundaries-breaking artist that revisited India to explore contemporary, ancient, and folk traditions.

As a young woman Suki worked as a CUSO teacher in an ashram. Her explorations included Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Vadovara, as well as tours in Orissa, and Kutch. Tentatively, she began to take photographs. She was conscious of the danger of an outsider, even an attached outsider, imposing a foreign gaze. She tried to stay close to the concrete.

The resulting photographs form the basis of the present exhibition. They have been laboriously photo-transferred onto encaustic-coated squares. The resultant squares, with their images, were then built up, brick-like, into incomplete and disrupted grids. Monochromatic squares in each piece allow the viewer’s eye not to lose itself in India’s detail, but rather to construct a whole of its own which may even be viewed as abstraction. She presents these pieces as her vision of a place like no other in her exhibition PASSAGE TO INDIA.

Opening at PROOF Studio Gallery on January 30 from 12-4 PM, and running from Jan 27-February 7.
PROOF Studio Gallery, Studio 104, Bldg. 74,
55 Mill Street in Toronto’s Distillery District.
