Charles Gick: Dirt and Flowers

Dirt and Flowers: and other things we eat and breathe...
9/12/2016-10/10/2016







This was a great show, and a great collection of Charles's work. I enjoyed attending this show, but I also really liked going to a solo show for a professor. It helps me understand the instructor better by seeing their work. 

The spoons and the coat are my two favorite pieces. I enjoy the simplicity of the spoons, and how much the circular display resembles a clock, time, and the cyclical nature of earth. The coat is my favorite. It has so many layers to explore and the final display above the cracked earth is stunning. I like that over time the contents of the bags will naturally change and decay, and continue to change the color of the piece.
