Keith Tilford: "Plicature"
May 13, 2004—June 12, 2004 | Reception Thursday, May 13th, 6-8PM
Keith Tilford composes ink drawings of portraits, books, explosions and other referential material. These works are accompanied by a large concatenated sculpture composed of plastics snap ties. Tilford’s drawings combine to create a large scale installation sprawled over the walls of the gallery. Individual works not only function by themselves but also become signs and symbols akin to those they are composed with and when placed in proximity to each other become new systems. Two-dimensional objects form spatial environments that allow multiple sites of entry for the viewer.
