SUMMARY:Language of Line Exhibition Reception
DESCRIPTION:"The Language of Line" June 8 - July 8\n\n\n\nWHEN: Reception: Friday\, June 8th at 5 pm.\n\n\n\nThe exhibition can be viewed in Lillstreet's gallery from June 8th - July 8th.\n\n10a-7:30p (Mon. - Thurs.)\, 10a-6p (Fri. & Sat.)\, 10a-5p (Sun.)\n\n\n\n\n\nFour artists explore the relationship between audience and material in this multimedia exhibition of paintings and ceramics.\n\n\n\nWHAT:\n\n"The Language of Line" features a variety of ceramics as well as 2-dimensional work from artists Sam Chung\, Josh DeWeese\, Heather Mae Erickson\, and Neha Vedpathak. Exploring different cultural histories and repetition of forms\, whether their work is minimalist\, functional\, or ornamental\, these artists all explore the tactile relationship between the audience and the work.\n\n\n\nSam Chung is a ceramicist based in Tempe\, Arizona. Focusing on functional pieces\, Chung creates vases\, pots\, and dish sets that challenge traditional forms\, using graphically strong 2-dimensional images to guide his hand. One image he explores again and again is the cloud motif\, common in ancient Korean art. Utilizing pottery to explore a variety of cultural influences\, Chung attempts to challenge and transform the way we approach and interact with pottery.\n\n\n\nJosh DeWeese\, based in Helena\, Montana\, creates beautifully formed vessels which often center around the glaze and firing as the focal point. Whimsical tea sets and organic forms are enhanced by flowing\, underpainted designs beneath soda\, wood\, and salt-fired glazes. DeWeese's pieces are friendly and warm\, precious but inviting enough to serve their functionality with ease.\n\n\n\nHeather Mae Erickson is a ceramicist based in Alfred\, New York. Her functional ceramic pieces are firmly planted in the world of object design\, specifically the crisp-lined simplicity of Scandinavian design. Handling each piece individually\, she carefully constructs a clean aesthetic that almost appears to be made by machine. She explores the way that the user interacts with the dish as well as how the dishes interact with each other\, creating new shapes and ways of arranging a table based on those forms. Much like Sam Chung\, Erickson is working to break and recreate the way we interact with functional ceramics.\n\n\n\nNeha Vedpathak is a multimedia artist based on the north side of Chicago. Originally from India\, Vedpathak's work experiments with a variety of materials\, ranging from handmade paper to acrylic polymer and plexiglass\, to natural materials such as turmeric\, soil\, and dried flowers and leaves. She often works in multiples\, creating installations and drawings of repeating and evolving patterns. By exploring similar themes and ideas using a multitude of different media\, Vedpathak seems to create her own vocabulary based in materiality.\n\n\n\nCOST: Reception and Gallery viewing are free and open to the public. Works of art are for sale.\n\n\n\nWHERE: Lillstreet Art Center 4401 N. Ravenswood\, Chicago\, IL 60640\n\n\n\nWHEN: Reception: Friday\, June 8th at 5 pm.\n\n\n\nThe exhibition can be viewed in Lillstreet's gallery from June 8th - July 8th.\n\n10a-7:30p (Mon. - Thurs.)\, 10a-6p (Fri. & Sat.)\, 10a-5p (Sun.)\n\n\n\nWorkshops with the artists will take place throughout the summer:\n\nHeather Mae Erickson: July 14-15\, 10 am - 5 pm\n\nJosh DeWeese: August 11-12\, 10 am - 5 pm\n\nSam Chung: September 15-16\, 10 am - 5 pm
