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
