Thaumaturgy
You are cordially invited to the next art exhibit at Hibbleton Gallery entitled “Thaumaturgy” featuring a multimedia installation by Dixie Boswell and a live musical performance by Kafka Cafe Orchestra. The opening reception is Friday, August 3rd from 6-10pm during the Downtown Fullerton Art Walk. As always, this event is free and open to the public.
Artist Statement:
Adapting to being in my body and being led by not just my eyes, but all the senses provided a path to experiencing the world purely and thoroughly. In the white cube, walking down the street, tromping around in the wilderness- I began the practice of emptying my mind of language and filling it with light and air.
Here is an ever-changing space made to encourage movement and a heightened use of the senses, predominantly vision and touch. There are no images nor objects, only almost-shapes to see as they effuse over indeterminately shaped space, morphing into and out of each other. There is nothing specifically to touch, only to feel- rippling air from transparent surfaces fluttering as they are activated by bodies maneuvering around and under them.
