About the Item

paper pulp, wood Denise Yaghmourian’s material based sensibility results in works that reference Feminism, Minimalism, Post-Minimalism, the Pattern and Decoration movement, as well as contemporary concerns about art making. Originally a painter, Yaghmourian discovered new materials for an experimental body of work by scavenging through fabric stores, thrift shops, and toy stores. Since then she has used objects associated with mass production and consumption, transforming the mundane into formal studies of shape, color, and pattern. Through her work she embraces the obvious and accepts the ubiquitous manufactured nature of today’s society. Yaghmourian creates works that are sophisticated, detailed, meditative, and elegant in their process and end result, but powerful in their tension between material and content.

Bi-Fold IX
By Mark Pomilio
Located in Phoenix, AZ
charcoal on paper mounted to silk foam core and wood Mark Pomilio’s work focuses on the research of fractals, cloning, and single cell manipulation. His mathematics-based drawings serve as a metaphor for naturally occurring systems of reproduction and growth. When Pomilio begins a piece, he doesn’t know where it will lead; although his tools and marks are precise, the layering, repetition, rotation, and distribution of basic shapes are improvised to emulate a single cell dividing and compounding into a complex form. The process of cell growth influences Pomilio’s practice and is emphasized through his own process, the use of erasure, faint outlines, opacity and translucency, and deliberate marks. The resulting compositions are balanced, unified, and harmonious. His work is included in the collections of the University of Arizona Museum of Art, Baylor University Martin Museum of Art, Dupont Corporation, University of Michigan...
