Please join the Department of Art and Music in the Trustman Art Gallery on Tuesday, September 13, from 5:00-7:00pm, to welcome our exhibiting artist, Sally Moore.
Moore’s dynamic sculptures depict complex miniature worlds paradoxically conveying conflict, tension, and fragility with a sense of playfulness. The structures seem to defy gravity: disassembled landscapes extending from the wall, which appear to have no foreground, background, or horizon line.
Moore distresses recycled plywood, constructs fragile wooden ladders, uses soft fringe as a contrast to broken plywood, shards of glass, and rough-cut edges of steel mesh. Her “odd pairings” all perform a delicate balancing act to create disturbing, beautiful, and entertaining art.
The exhibit also features Moore’s drawings, which include photocopies from her sketchbooks that give insight into her creative thought process.
