Buffalo, NY – 464 Gallery presents
'Dust,' an exhibition organized by local
artist Alicia Malik on Friday, July 5,
2013 from 6-11 pm. Malik paints pictures
of insects that have died in windowsills.
"With this series of paintings, my
desire is to capture and render a moment
of contemplative silence," said
Malik. "Through painting small bugs
in expansive, non-descript space, the
viewer questions not only the significance
of insect life but also the universal
mortality of all things."
The paintings are intended to help
the viewer become the bug and "become
engulfed in the grunge and density
of the painting." |
