This piece was created for and shown in Phillips Gallery's group show on the theme, "Our Global Climate Emergency" July 2021.
Joe Ostraff is a professor of art at Brigham Young University. He received a BFA from Brigham Young University and a MFA from the University of Washington. He is married to Melinda Weston, an ethno-botanist. Together they are raising six children. They have collaborated extensively over the past thirty years. This interaction has had a deep impact on his art practice. They have worked together developing significant collaborative projects with Wirral Met, Liverpool, England; Kau Taha Mataika, Vava’u, Tonga; and Te Whare Wananga o Awanuiarangi, Whakatane, New Zealand, resulting in three documentary films and numerous exhibitions in painting, video installations, works on paper and book arts.
Of his new work Ostraff says: These paintings reflect a longing to locate myself within the human and physical geography and to generate some form of conversation. There is a measure of anxiety associated with this longing... It is an uncomfortable compulsion that effects everything I do as I go about the business of unpacking myself. Sources of inspiration include shapes located within urban and natural landscape and things people give me, all flattened and compressed into paint. While ideas and questions inform my initial process, any clear interpretation of these connections as found in a completed work remains elusive to me and I find myself becoming accustom to that feeling.

- Inland Crossing 35By Hyunmee LeeLocated in Salt Lake City, UTThe gestural paintings of Hyunmee Lee are sumptuously minimal. Rich forms advance from buttery canvases like an abstract garden. Gauzy veils of paint hover like soft air against the ebony weight of matter. Light peeks through translucent shapes like sunlight illuminating soft mist. Texture swirls and echoes across the canvas as if carved by waves or eroded by the wind. The viewer, invited into a realm of contemplation and meditation, is surprised to look away and see the physical world existing in only three dimensions. But perhaps that is precisely the experience the artist would like the viewer to have. In her current exhibition, Touch, on display at the Phillips Gallery...Category
