ART EXHIBIT

Layers of Light and Tension: The Art of Jim Irvine and Katie Truk

Explore a captivating interplay of light, movement, and material in this unique exhibition featuring the works of Jim Irvine and Katie Truk. Irvine’s mixed media creations on canvas and paper invite viewers into a dreamscape where memory and imagination intertwine. His pieces distill the essence of experiences into multi-layered visual stories, encouraging an intimate exploration of structure, color, and mark-making.

In contrast, Truk’s innovative use of pantyhose and wire crafts a powerful dialogue of strength and vulnerability. Her sculptures, free from traditional constraints, reveal the complexity and resilience of human experience. Through the manipulation of everyday materials, she exposes the beauty found in tension and the grace within struggle.

Together, Irvine and Truk offer a dynamic experience that challenges viewers to look closer and engage with the unexpected depths of their work. This exhibition invites you to explore the boundaries of perception and the rich, textured layers of human existence.

All art will be available for sale and proceeds to benefit Friends of Whittemore and the artists.
