On The Edge Of Normal
By Madeline Denaro
Located in Park City, UT
To allow something that I do not control to have an action, to allow oneself to bring this action into a materiality; this is why I make art.
My work is very much about process. I f...

Wendover.3
By Joseph Ostraff
Located in Salt Lake City, UT
"Wendover 3" by Joseph Ostraff, oil on panel, 36 X 31 inches, $4,800.
"For me, paint documents the state of things, how I feel and what is at the forefront in my thinking—maybe it’s like the soup of the day. I do not consider this process to be anything special in itself. The paintings record the daily random and absurd associations I make, which seem interesting to me after the fact. The Domestic paintings are a case in point. My wife and I have six children. Four have left home. Three are married. We are left with two children, both currently in middle school. We have about five years and they too will move out. This is on my mind. I am thinking about the layers of memories and it comes out as layers of paint. Feeling nostalgic, I think about all the noise and activity our home has absorbed. In turn, I found children’s large vinyl decals from Angry Birds...

Inland Crossing 35
By Hyunmee Lee
Located in Salt Lake City, UT
The 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...

"I have a vague idea of what I am going to paint. I read that many artists are inspired by an idea before they begin their work and plan their approach and process based on that idea or muse. Others become inspired after they have begun working and watching colors, shapes and designs form. I basically belong the second group. Usually, after painting begins in a loose, free manner, I become excited by certain colors and patterns and continue from there." -Claudia Sisemore

Josanne Glass paintings focus on color, texture and surface quality, resulting in work that is simultaneously minimalist and organic, creating a tension between restraint and abandon.
Objects, if any, and ground are treated equally. The abstract paintings begin on paper or canvas with a textured base. From there, simple lines or shapes are added, and quite often followed by actions (carving, sanding) that create unplanned patterns or textures that will ultimately define the painting.
